Over watered? Help please

[Bolo33]

Hey all, my girls are super green. And a little droopy. Are over watered? I watered them 2 days ago and they lift a little but they still look a little off to me.
They are in foxfarm soil
I dont know the name of the lights but 2are 600wts and the other is 1000 .

Are the pots heavy, light, same as when watered

Or??????? You probably don't lift them to judge dryness

 

[Bolo33]

Honestly just read to today to lift to measure before and after weight. But I will pay attention to that now

They look pretty wet.. I would put a fan blowing on the pots.. Dry em out faster..

If the fan leaf stems droop mid way, it needs water, if the fan leaf stems are pointing up but the leafs are drooping, it's been over-watered! I say they need water!

What size fabric pot are you using and how much water are you using?

Yup for newbies I did for awhile get an extra pot same as you grow in and fill it with soil, leave next to your ones with plants and as you water and feel you need more, lift that other bag that you don't water and compare.

I I was giving them about a liter each of water. Is that too much?

Also they are in 1gallon fab pots

Yea I read that but to mee they look like the stems are pointing up and leaf pointing down.

Not sure always used bigger bots, but a liter seems right just let atkeast top inch or two os soil get pretty dry before next water. Or if you got a empty pot like I said fill it up now and compare it to you other pots

Will do. Should there be space in between each pots as wel to circulate it through? They are next to it eachother 2by 2

Yes I would recommend aittle space just for air movement and won't allow mold to sit against your pots where they touch.

Hey, I'm on my first grow so take what I say with a pinch of salt

I have overwatered in the beginning and to help dry the soil faster I used a chop stick to poke holes in the soil....

Initially I used to give it half a liter every 3-4 days between (Weigh the pot dry and weigh it wet to get a feel for when they're dry and need watering)

I'm in a 20L pot and I water with around 1L every 2 days or so.

I'm currently in the flowering stage and it's drinking like no tomorrow..
