Sorry for the repost above.
Mexi~ yeah quite honestly it sounds like a shit ton of water to me as well but he says he hasn't had root problems...I am curious to hear what type of pots he's doing. Are you using perlite? I use about 25%. But yeah, you are under-watering your plants in my opinion.
I used to give my plants 1.5-2 gallons every other day during bloom and I was only using three gallon pots. SunShine is super airy, and seemingly can take alot of water.
I say give em close to double what you are but that's only my opinion based on past experience. Obviously you aren't getting any run off with 2 gallons right?
When I was hand watering I was doing a few gallons, and then when the surface of the SunShine dried out I would water again. Give more water a shot, they will tell you immediately if you are over-doing it but you are definitely under-watering in my opinion.
Have a buddy who keeps his sunshine nearly completely saturated at all times and never has root problems just to give you an idea of how forgiving this shit can be. Got any pics of your garden mexi?
