New Grower Danielsaaan’s Mephisto Sour Stomper

Day 45: 3 gallon got tap water with Quillaja. PH 6.3. Til runoff. Fully soaked another 3 gallon pot til runoff with the same to try a Mephisto Forum Stomper x Toof Decay. Will plant that tomorrow. Will water til runoff once it loses half its water weight, and repeat. Really trying to get the watering down. Might start a perpetual grow. 5 gallon pots will need water tomorrow. Will weigh pots daily.

plants look happier you will get watering down.
Slowly grasping things! Is it okay to water this way from the very beginning? As long as I’m allowing the soil to dry back a bit? As in water slowly til slight runoff, wait til pot loses half the water weight, repeat? That way the soil never dries out and there aren’t dry pockets? Or should I wait a few weeks to do that - when the plants are a little more established?
I feel like my plants outgrew my watering habits quickly, and the bottom of the pot was likely dry for a bit…
Appreciate the help!
its a few weeks from the start that I give a full watering. Before that I just kinda judge the pot and water the outside of it a few times. Its hard to teach judgement. It will come man.

Do you soak the entire pot before sewing? I’m going to try ManOGreen’s method of watering when half of the water weight is lost. I believe he does that from the start? I’ll start another one in a week or two and likely try something different with that one until I figure things out!

Yes I do and let it sit 24 in the tent before I plant my seed. All you can do is try things find what works best for you. All we can do is give you ideas to go off of.

The new 3 gallon already lost half the water weight, so that ain’t going to work! Will try to follow what I did for the first couple of weeks on this current grow before full waterings I suppose! Thanks again Shu

:yeahthat:Exactly no one is a better judge at what's going on then someone that is at ground zero ie: the farmer:toke: @Danielsaaan try different things side by side water one more and one less see what does better. Shouldn't take to long to figure if your watering too much or too less.
