Should I water these plants everyday?

I have 2 clones right now outdoors, i'm in socal they are getting about 8 hours of direct sunlight a day and we've been having about 90 degree weather. Should I still give them 200ml every 2 days or every day since the weather conditions.

Are they in the ground? If they are and the surface looks dry then water. If they are in pots, it depends on the size. If it is a 3 or 5 gallon then probably every day unless it rains. If the pot is larger you may be able to get away with every 2 days. It also depends on what kind of drainage you have. It's hard to say without more info. Pics would be good.

How's your root structure? You didn't mention how long its been since they were cut and I still see the bobbed leaves which leads me to believe that due to the lack of an intricate root web they will need a bit more watering than a fully rooted plant.
But that's just me. :cool:

Hey, go to your local garden or hardware store and buy some sulfur powder. It's usually marketed as a fungicide for grape vines or rosebushes. Mix a scoop of it with water in a spray bottle and give your plants a good spraying (after the sun goes down). You need to take care of that powdery mildew on there. Or if you happen to have copper sulfate lying around somewhere, you can use that.

As for your watering question, it's not about watering every X number of days. If the soil is still moist, you don't need to water. If the soil is all dried out, then water em.
My roommate in college used to go into the grow room and water the plants, even if the soil was soaking wet. Drove me fucking nuts
 
Its Southern Cali. Its hot and dry. Wtf are u talking about.
I'm talking about plants being over watered, or possibly rootbound..... For the most part mine are good for at least five days if not a week. It stays mad hot during the day wear i'm at in socal too but not so hot that the water evaporates in two days... Try some ammended soil it makes a world of differnce, also its always a good idea to let your soil go threw a "wet dry" cycle. It allows steady root growth to match the growth done above the ground.

"Limit the water, control the growth, and watch the flowers dense up"
