they are 15 gallon about 3 and a half months vegging, before this they were in 5 gall and i watered them every other day with 1.5 gallon, because the day after they were still pretty moist. i feel like if i fed them every day it would only harm them

oh and btw i have no other choice but to give them once every 2 days at the moment, so what would be best you think? 3 gallons seems oke and runoff is about 20%

I think you’re fine with how you’re watering them right now I think they’ll be goodbye the time you get back from vacation on a side note just being real with you not trying to troll anybody or talk down to anybody bro those plants are way way way too small for how long you’ve been vegging them way too small again I’m not trying to talk down on anyone or troll here but no one else seems to want to give it to you real so I guess I got to be the guy these plants were only vegged for 8 to 9 weeks the one in the back was veg from seed eight weeks and three days that’s a 5 x 5 tent that she is taking up all by yourself that’s why I move the other one out… i’m using artificial lights which is nothing and I mean nothing compared to the sun ….my pot is three times smaller than yours and I’m sitting on a veg A whole month to two months shorter than yours your plants honestly God bro should be sporting at least a 6 x 6 canopy apiece at that long veg time and those size pots…. If you’re going to go Coco you have to pop them up at the right time start with a very small container wait till it’s route it out transplant it wait till it’s route it out transplant it wait till it’s route it out that’s how you take full advantage of Coco‘s explosive growth if you’re in cocoa and you’re not rude it out and you put a small plant in a giant park you’re going to get growth slower than soil when in reality it should be twice as fast again I’m not trying to troll you were talk down to you I was brand new to this at one point we all were I’m just being real with you you’re wasting your time with those giant pots those plants are way too small u gota master the smaller pots first bro trust me iv made the same mistake that’s why I’m being real with you right now because I’ve been there

dude you really comparing indoor (probably hybrid) plants under a 20/4 cycle to outdoor full indica plants lmaoooo. and i just posted the pic so you were prolly the only dude to see it, with your 'nobody wants to give it to you straight'. you only know the veg time and pot size, you don't know the strain, train techniques or even how big the plant actually is, but thanks for your input dude

Well we know that they are in 15 gallon pots. We know how big 15 gallon pots are so it's not really necessary to measure the size of the plants. You can estimate their size based on the relationship to the size of the pots.

They look smaller or about the same size as my outdoor plant that are just under 60 days old in 3 gallon pots. No need to take offense that he said they looked small.

Hybrids I assume. I actually popped the seeds having no idea what they were or where they came from. One was a seed in an unlabeled plastic vial and the other was a loose seed I'm guessing was bagseed I deemed worthy to keep just in case someday I planned to pop it.

You'll get better results feeding those plants at least daily to runoff. Also I'd suggest trying to find something to raise them off the ground with so the runoff doesn't stay in contact with the bottom of the pots. It'll also help keep cool ground temperatures away from your roots.

hm yeh i read it's best to feed em daily but mine where still moist the day after, so i started doing it every other day and they seemed to grow nicely. i felt like if i did it daily anyway they would get stunted right? especially since i asked it earlier this season on another forum and i remember being told that once every other day would be oke as well.
and yeh imma have to get something to raise them off the ground, haven't thought of that.

No coco needs to stay moist. Feeding them daily will help improve their health not stunt them.

Feeding them every other day will probably work but you'll have better results feeding them daily to runoff.

I feed plants outdoors in coco immediately after a rainstorm while the pot is still flooded. Daily. If nutes were free, I'd trickle feed them 24/7. lol

Here's the thing with coco, you can feed it every other or every few days if you want. It's a choice. But, if you do that, you may as well grow in soil because you lose the benefit of faster growth in coco. Fed daily gives the benefit of hydro growth rate.

Another problem with coco is that a lot of people say they're growing in coco and give advice when they shouldn't because their coco is mixed 1:1 with soil making it a soil grow, NOT a coco grow. A LOT of people do that.

I k ow how big the plant is roughly becuase I’m very familiar with 15-20 gal pots…. Pure indica or not a veg time that long should have a monster growing out of that pot, they don’t slow down growing when their in veg once they hit their stride they keep going regardless of ginetics…that’s why theirs plants over 15” tall in outdoor grows becuase they veg them for ever and a day…. That fact that their that small sitting on that amount of veg time means you are doing something wrong…. Iv grown pure indicas in 3 gal fabric pots with 6 week veg from seed that where about the same size as yours…. How ever you look at it with a plant that small theirs no reason to have it in a pot that when you’re in coco ….now if it was a giant that would be another story

saying they'll grow regardless of genetics is straight up wrong, im guessing you know sativa's grow way taller than indica's, and seeing how my strain only grows to like 100 cm and its already 75ish, i would say is pretty good.
and you comparing your own hybrid indoor plants to outdoor plants in tbh mostly shitty weather makes no sense
