:peace: hey everybody
this is Bud lover 1
I'm growing my first plant and it is a female. it's outside
I'ts growing very well.( about 4 in a week!)
it's about 5ft tall.right now I bent the plant over useing a vine as a rope.
when it was about 3 feet tall. to get it to bush out.
and it is getting bushy!!!
it is starting to bud now and I was wondering how often i should
water it I've been giveing it a 1 gal a week and just started giveing it
plant food ( today ).the soil I have is very rich from years of it being a cow farm.
I started useing color burst flowering plant food 15-30-15.
it was the best I could find at lows I followed directions and put 1 and a half teaspoon per sq foot like it said too.
now that I'm useing plant food do I water more often it's been dry most of summer. I first started in the begining of growing it with 2 gal a week and bottom leafs were turning yellow. so I cut back to a gal a week and its growing very well .and now that it;s buding I started useing plant food for bigger buds and we all want that :)do I need to give it more water than I have been. I don't want to hurt my baby I just want it to have big buds not burn it up. thanks for your help .

give it the same amount of water, but you should start the nutes at 1/4 to 1/2 the recommended strength and build up from there, especially since it sounds like your plants are well fed from the soil.

should I give my baby plant food every time I water it or every other watering or every 3rd watering since I water 1 time a week ?
also I should note that I water it in the morning while it's still dark.
just right before I leave for work :) thanks again for the info.

i reallly don't think your plant needs much fertilizer if it is in good agricultural soil. see how its doing with your first dosing after 2 weeks. given the soil and your watering pattern i wouldn;t fertilize more than every other week.

take off the branches bottom to top trim back all the crap then hang upside down with string until its dry, if you can snap the branch its ready to puff, 8/10 days should be cool, enjoy that horny slut LOL, puff that earb.

Flushing means to give a plant just water at the end say the last 2 weeks, thats because you dont want to be puffing chemical in the weed it will give you a sore head dude, so thats how you flush it just with water at the end no food ok, you can trim the bottom when its ready but then leave it for another week, chop the top LAST OK, hope this is of help to you.
