watering schedule...?

my plants are in the flowering stage and idk if i need to water them more or what (the leaves are starting to droop down) i need help

i noticed my ladies like to drink more when there flowering

drooping of leaves means over-watering...try watering them only when the top couple inches of soil has dried up...if the soil is dry and crumbling on the top chances are you can water it again...try waiting more than you are now before watering and you should see the leaves perk right back up

i haven't watered it in 3 or 4 days and the top of the soil (less then 1/2 inch) is dry... and i have them in a 10 gallon fish tank (covered up sides) and i busted a hole in the bottom and give them about a gallon of water maybe a gallon1/2 that shouldn't really over water them should it?

your the only one who know if they need water or no try to put your finger deeper in the soil to chek if its still wet (more then 1/2 inch)

now it's pretty dry not all the way but still could use watering how much water should i give the girls?

i use those self watering globes that release the water into the soil as needed, it takes alot of guess work outta watering, and from my experience watering can be a stressfull part of growing.they are cheap, i think i paid $15 each and they work great. no more over/under watering

ok thats a lot of soil though all i can say is i bet the inner stays dry ... 10 gal tank how many plants and how tall
