Hi guys.
I am growinf an auto wich is in the flowerinf phase right now and I've been watering her 0.5 l with nutrient reduced to half but I am seeing that she is in her 9th day today without being close to be dry the soil.
Do I overwater her or that ratio is ok?

The pot is 6L.


Thank you in advance.:toke::biggrin:
 
@Alexsaptesapte. I don't fully understand the question and a picture would help my friend. Half strength nutrients are no problem and if the medium is moist and well draining, no reason to add water. Always moist, never wet.

The question is how much quantity pf water with nutrients do i have to water her at once. Cause i usually do 0.5l of water and nutrient. at once and she seem pretty wet. In fact she is on her slmost 10th day without watering after the last time feeding.

P.s Here is a pic of her and the soil if that would help( but i don't understand how. :biggrin:)

A moisture meter is the easiest way to stop guessing.
 
I'd presume that since you are in soil, as has been noted, all you pretty much need to do is to give each plant enough to keep the soil (such as 1 inch under the top) noticeably moist. If you drain-to-waste, probably best not to do this every time (if you have concerns about over-watering), but there shouldn't be a problem with this, saturating the soil, if it drains well. Also many recommend not including base nutes in every feeding with soil, such as alternate full feedings and feedings with only some supplements.
 
In that shallow container the root system and plant are not developed to the point that it needs a great
deal of water. As long as it can drain, just keep it moist. It looks healthy and appropriate in size for the pot.
I would maintain what you're doing.
 
I grow in coco. Ive found the best way is to pick your pot up. If its feels heavy and solid dont water/feed. If she's light give her a little bit. Also learn what your leaves are doing. What temp and how much airflow does your grow environment have
