Hello, Forum!
Very first time grower here with a very first post and quesrion.
I have been reading forums and watching videos for the past month almost constantly to educate myself. However, I am a bit confused how to proceed next.
For watering I use bottled water, stabilized at pH 7 (+/- 0.5)
Today 08.05, I am at day 15.
My Autoflower EasyBud sprouted on the 24.04 in one of those circle pea pellets, which get bigger when first soaked in deionized distilled water.
I am planning on growiing it outside in a pot, just waiting for the night temps to normalize and get a little bit closer to the day ones. For now I am leaving it outside under the sun for the whole day and bringing it back inside at around 19:00pm in the evening until 12:00pm in the afternoon under a 130W 6700K CFL or when the weather outside is poor. Trying to stick close to 18/6 light schedule.
Until today I have been sticking to this watering schedule which helped a lot ( https://www.autoflower.org/threads/how-much-and-how-often-do-you-water-seedlings.56510/ ) with the only difference, that I placed the pellet with the seedling in a 12l pot with Canna Terra soil with a layer of perlite on the very bottom, just above the holes of the pot on day 3.
So shortly:
Day 3: 50ml just around the stem
Day 6: 50ml just around the stem
Day 8: 50ml just around the stem
Day 10: 50ml just around the stem
Day 12: 100ml just around the stem
Day 14: 100ml just around the stem
Day 15 (today) : 100ml but this time I used sprayer and sprayed everywhere on the soil surface, EXCEPT around the stem, while protecting the leaves, because I have never wetted the soil which is away from the stem and it looked very very dry.
My question is, how shall I start watering from now on? Should I start watering the whole pot until a slight run-off at the bottom, then check if the first inch of soil is dry and water again util run-off (once in 3-4 days?)
Attaching a picture of the flower made today.
Just want to get as much experience as possible to ensure my next grows will be successful (White Widow auto, Green Gelato Auto, Northern Light Auto)
