This is another post about watering but im still not sure whats the right amount. Last plant didnt make it due to probably overwatering it.
So should i really water the plant good and then wait 2-3 days till the top 2 or so inches are dry again or should i not soak the plant when watering but just get it nice and wet/moist instead.

i like to wait until the soil is almost bone dry about 2 inches down. that will establish strong root growth. they'll go searching for the water.

werd. soak the soil completely, then after the runoff drains, fluff up the top few inches with your fingers.

what will fluffing up the top do? Roots are further down or?

for the same reason you don't grow in mud.

just water it once at an amount u think is right, and after if it droops u will no that it had too much water(will go back up in hours). So the next time u cud give it less.

why dont you get a moisture meter?
can pick 1 up for £15 - £20
that will help on how much water to give and stops the guessing

This is what I simply do for watering my babies. When the top of soil LOOKS or FEELS dry, I water it enough so that water is coming out for the drain holes at the bottom. Make sure you have really good drain holes as this will prevent your babies from drowning! Good luck with any new grow!
