Hey all first grow with Autos for me. I put germinated sprouts in 3 gallon grow bags. I followed a tip from this site to put half of my soilless mix in the grow bag and soak with PH adjusted RO water. Then fill bag to top with dry mix. I then cut the bottom third off of peat pots and inserted them about 2/3 into the soilless. I followed this method with the idea that I only wet the inside of the peat cup which will hold moisture and of course the newly planted germs. soaking the bottom of the grow bag would encourage the tap root to chase the water down below.

Great advice because at 9 days old they have had a perfect start and are healthy. They have not needed more than a dribble of water at day 6. When should I saturate the whole bag rather than just in and around the new seedlings?
I want to wait until they show signs of being hungry before I feed them but I don't want to overwater
NL has started first set of 3 fingers, and both JH are about a day behind. Having trouble loading my pics to my PC

I am wondering if I should saturate the entire bag when they are dry enough or should I keep watering in and around the 3 inch peat pot?

Any help appreciated. I have a lot of experience with photos and hydro but I want to ask experienced auto brothers in bud for advice so I limit mistakes.

Thanks in advance for ANY ADVICE??... I followed advice on here and so far so good

I can't find the post to answer this question

Peace and happy toking
 
I cant give you tje best answer but ill tell you what I do. I soak the middle til I get 3 sets of leaves then I start soaking.the outside a little. The bigger she gets the further out out I get. Now it's just the way I do it and so far all my plants looks good atleast to me :)
