    An example of a normal watering would be

    130 ounces of water to a plant kept at 78 degrees... in a 3 gallon pot with a 70% soil, 30% perlite mix..

    for a 45 day old plant..

    Now there may be a lot of variance to this.. BUT... 7 ounces... NO WAY..

    lol - this is not to say that you can't grow a healyth successful plant watering it 7 ounces a day.. but "they" say the way to water is "flood and DRY"..

    water you plant with a shit load of water.. and then let the soil dry... then water again with a shit load of water and then let dry.... and so on..

    this allows the roots to comfortably use the entire pot for its roots....

    when the top2-3 inches of a 3-5 gallon pot are dry. thats when you water...

    you can also tell caus eth pot will get real light... you don't want to wait until the leaves droop! yikes


    hope this helped

    love the KNOWM

    ahahahahah you guys are awesome!!

    Rekap and MEATHEAD..lol... all of my experience growing on 6 continents, in door, out door, hydro, aero, and soil, organic and pure synthetic, I've used my piss, the dogs piss and Zandor's piss to fertilze my plants, I have used mylar, flat white paint and my own bare ass as a reflective surface... i've grow with the sun, fluorescent, HIDS and LOVE.. I have read books, watched dvd's and channeled caesar chavez..

    and I have always noticed the same thing.. at night the leaves tend to droop a bit... and then they get real perky... and then about 3 hours before the lights go off they start to look a bit tired and start to droop(very little, only the keen eye of GROWERS would notice, non-growers would never notice the difference).. a fool days work I guess.

    A nice set of tits can be like that. a chicks breasts seem to be more perky and taught in the morning.. (no stress of gravity on them when they're sleeping all night) then by days end, they got a liitle sag.. still beautiful.. just a little lower.. go figure..

    i love you
