Everytime I water...

Every freaking time I water my plant gets all droppy on me immediately after. I've got a pot with several drainage holes so I know that's not the problem. Anybody have an idea what could be causing this?

Are you sure your not over watering them? Soil can hold a lot of water. Just because it is not draining out the bottom doesn't mean the soil isn't too saturated. I have no experience with soil but this is my best guess.

Yea I'm pretty sure I am overwatering but it's been 5 days since the last time I watered. I watered barely to runoff this past time and it still is drooping.. Idk if it's the strain or soil or what but all I know is that I'm going to be a lot more conservative now with my watering.

time to mix perlite into the soil . I could put 5 gallons of water into a 1 gallon pot of soil yes it will run through it but point is its impossible to over water them . you need to get better drainage . get perlite . problem solved

Thing is I did mix perlite in the soil. I guess just not enough.. It's an autoflower so I guess they need even more drainage. Oh well.. learned my lesson. Hopefully it won't hurt me too much in the end. It's Grape Muerto Auto by Barney's Farm. Tough little fucker.
