i wouldnt water every 2 days... wait until the soil is dry.. your plant will start drooping at the bottom before the soil is so dry it would hurt the plant... every 3 or 4 days should be about right.. you want to make sure there is very little, if any, moisture left in the soil.. this keeps the...
i dont think there is a point where we as growers will every be happy with what we actually have going.. we may be complacent... but i think there is always going to a part of us that wants to keep changing our tweaking just to see how much more we can push our plants to do...

it actually preforms better than a 400w lamp....
the flowers i got from the floros compared to the 400w hps last grow had many differences... the floros were much more compact and hard... more sticky and trich covered.. and all around i was happier with them..
you can keep them closer so...
over watering usually occurs from multiple waterings before the soil is dry... and takes a couple waterings to see it happen... so you shouldnt have that issue if you only soaked the 1 time....
the soil doesn't look like it is soaking wet either... it seems fine... is it really wet and i...
it really just depends on the rate the o2 gets used up by roots zones..
my guess is that roots can survive a long with low levels of o2... since they are underground and basically depend on water to deliver oxygen to them they have to be able to survive a good amount of time... so i would...
well first off congrats... i know the feeling of the first sprout... this will be one of the quickest and longest periods of time you have ever gone through.. just know you have a good 8 weeks ahead of you.. and you cant speed it up... lol
so now down to business... from the looks of where they...
it seems silly to throw out the run off water.. i know.. i used to think the same thing.. but like i said there is so much more that comes out of the run off than goes in.. so its not a good idea...
plus, nutes go so far.. i mean, a little goes a long way... so its a relatively small investment...

dont go by how many days are in between watering or how much weight they are losing how often or anything like that.. those are all variables.. your plant will use different amounts of water at different rates depending...
my auto aks arent flowering.. at all.. it pisses me off so much... im disappointed in sagarmartha.. they usually have great strains and seeds.. it surprises me to have these turn out the way the are..
oh... well fuck it then... coco or hydroton it is....
i was just looking for something that is easy to throw away and little mess... just seemed to be the answer... guess the easy answer isnt always the right one... lol
