Look nice for 3 weeks man, I recommend u let the plants tell u when it's time to water keeping root soil moist add water when top soil begins to dry out and look lighter then soil underneath, how much is typically up to the plant too, if u see yellow leaves your over doing it, if u see curling on the leaves your under doing it.

Plants look good but I would change the way you water.

Let the containers dry out to a point where the leaves start to droop. Lift each container and get a feel for how heavy it is dry. This is your dry weight. Now SLOWLY (I use an aerator or shower head on my water bucket) add water to the container. Make a cycle through all the containers and come back around adding more water SLOWLY until you see water starts coming out the bottom of the container.

Now lift the container and get a feel for the weight when it's saturated. This is your wet weight. Don't water again until the containers feel like the dry weight. Five gal containers can take a couple days to a week to dry out depending on temps, lights, soil, and other variables. It will take you a couple of watering cycles, but you will get the "feel" for when to water your plants. #1 killer of MJ plants is over watering.

Good luck!

Excellent. When you are new, it's a good idea to water until you just start to see run-off. After some practice you can tell by lifting the pot when the soil is fully saturated. Cannabis likes to go dry before each watering and for me the lifting method is the most accurate.
