    Default How much do you water your plants?

    How many times a day do you water your plants, when they are vegging and they are over 20"? I'm only giving them two glasses of water I'm thinking they need more, I'm looking for the average, remember my room is pretty hot, humid so water does dry up pretty fast, specially with this 1000 watt mh bulb

    During vegg you should only water about a half a gallon for a 3 gal pot or until the water starts to come from the bottom. Then water again when the pot is very light in weight usually 3 or 4 days.

    I'm in 5 gallon buckets I have two in one so if I do over water It will go into the bottom bucket, but it just seems as they are super thirsty and need watering 2 times a day remember they are 18 to 25 inchs

    i usually give a litre of water for every gallon of soil.

    make sure it's not too hot. are your leaves curling? my plants average about 1 gallon a day between four of them. then someone said not to water everyday. so now i do half gallon per plant every other day.

    Well it's actually alot less hot even though today was in the 100's(78 to 85 with a/c running) I moved my 1000 watt along with 12 plants to a new room with a 5,000 watt cpu a/c, I have a few curling but nothing major, Upstairs I'm also vegging but it's pretty hot there I'm running 2 x 400 watt mh, and a 4 x fluc, I think I'm going to put a 5,000 watt btu up there too, do you think I should just get one a/c like a 24,000 btu to keep the entire house cool? I'm also going to need to get my power upgraded because running all this stuff did cause me to blow breakers but I got them replaced but I know once I add these 3 x 1000 watt and I already got 1 1000 watt It's going to get super hot, so I'm going to need a nice a/c, I wish I had central air.

    I may be way out of line in saying this and if I am then please forgive me because I mean absolutely no disrespect, but it seems a little odd that your spending what I see as alot of money on the big fancy lights but yet your not quite sure on how to water a marijuana plant. I think maybe you should do a little more reading and research before diving in so deep so quik.
