So my question comes to me late at night or very early in the morning depending on how you look at it ... And of course HighAF :) any way when growing in direct soil outdoors is to much water a real problem durring flowering ?? We have been getting some rain and my girls need a feed but I don't want to feed after a rain ‍♂ but they are starting to go a bit yellow in parts also also I run a 3 hour drip line every second day of just tap water , Mabe cut down on the Timmer waterings and more feed would help ?? Any thoughts
would be appreciated ☮

How much is “Some rain”? A little shower or drizzle, or is Noah‘s Ark passing ur window as we speak?
U still use a drip line when the soil is wet? Why?

I water every second day at the moment, but we’ve been having top temps at midday of 90f+ and no rain in sight.

I’d take it easy on the drip and don’t worry about feeding; they won’t die in a hurry, but if u overwater u could risk budrot.
How far are you from harvest?


Get a hygrometer and measure the wetness of the soil. I leave my tomatoes to almost dry out completely...

Let nature do its thing, don’t overwater and feed/water when necessary....

Let us know how u get on!
