Things are looking nice man.

If you are worried about the seed mix holding to much water you can always just water the outer ring of it, and not saturate it. Your soil should act like a sponge and draw it in towards the center.
I can confirm this. My GSC was eating more than some of my photos, and still looked like she wanted more. Haha just don't screw up like I did and dose a vegging auto with full strength photo flower nutes, or you'll get one of these.

That not my GSC (it's my bubba fucker) but the poor thing didn't know what the hell to do.
Haha on a side note I think thats what I'll call my unknown plant. Bubba Fucker (not so) Kush.

great idea on the whole acting like a sponge thing! and i remember seeing that update in your log looks like shes getting "the squeeze"

got to learn them and they will tell you what they need... leaves pointing down mean 3 things... they are asleep they are over watered or they need water.....

Yeah. Strange thing is I never got any nute burn, just a twisted plant.

personally at the size they are now I make sure to give a nice water to where I see a little run off... then wait until the pot is dry and do it again.. remember you can kill them by over watering but the revive fast from under watering... watch the leaves they will tell you what they want.... pointing up and down... do not rely on the leaves and what they are telling until an hour after lights on...

yea i haven had runoff at all except for when i pre-soaked my pots :-/ maybe i should give em a little more water today?
