5 days? my soil dried a lot quicker than that,as plants get larger they drink more so you should water more often,once the soil dries too fast the plants will be sucking on dry as nutes with the end result of nute burn,crunchy leaves and the susceptibility to heat stress.Don't water every 5 days water when they need it,how would you like if i fed you every 5 days and you got hungry or thirsty at day 2-3.

I do water as needed thats kust how long it takes for them to get dry and the soil is still a little moist about 2 inches under the top i use 3 lights a 70 watt mh and hps which i alternate every day a 55 watt cfl equivalent to 200 watts and a 100 watt equiv cfl that runs on 26 watts they are in a closet the closet has been taped on all sides so i dont think any light is getting in there also when i do fert i use half the reccomended strength I think i may do a flush just to be on the safe side though, I just dont see how the could have nute burn would a high alkaline soil cause this?
