I suggest you set up a 4-6 days for watering and other things.
I water 2X a week during Veg and 3X a week during Flowering. Yes some are more thirsty than others, my OG Diamonds will take some H2O down! But my Blue dreams seem to never need watering. Also what Nutrients are you using? Every stage has different needs and to much can be a very bad thing. Its easy to over-water and root rot or chem burn your girls.
Every Strain is different so pay close attention to leaf color and shape.
To much watering especially during Flowering will send the plant into Chemical Burn AKA Nutrient Lock. This is caused by nutrients crystalizing in the roots and making it very hard to absorb water. The leaves will turn yellow and will start to wilt, the stem becomes weak and if not corrected will kill the plant. This can be cured by Flushing and praying. Get a system that works and stick to it, and you'll be running like a well oiled machine in no time....GL man...

thanks man, thats what i've been doing for the past day or 2 (and yes, the plants are in soil). today i grabbed some binder paper and labeled each plant, i plan on measuring it twice a week and watering it every other day now. this is the same with the plants that are in the tent vegging (opposite days). i have noticed that my strains absorb water more or less than others, im sure root structure and age have are an important part to it as well.

but yeah, this is my first grow, started nutes about 2 weeks before flowering and realized that they are just as important as people say. i feel like i have a good system going on right now tho. there is one problem however...there are definitely bugs. ive sprayed twice (today was the second day, start of week 2) but there were webs near the base of the branch to the trunk. would you recommend anything besides bug spray that my friend recommended and let me borrow? i dont know the name of it but i trust that he knows what he is talking about.

ill give an update tomorrow on everything, i enjoy hearing techniques so i can improve doing this. thanks!
slayerxslayer Reviewed by slayerxslayer on . Best time to water flowering plants? So I just put 5 of my veging plants into the flowering stage, and have been on 12/12 for 3 nights now and I just want to know when the best time to water the plants is? As of now I dont have a scheduled time for them to be watered but have been giving them a combined gallon of water (5 plants). Let me know! thanks everyone Rating: 5
