My plants don't need water? Yet

Just wondering if anybody has had this problem. Every since I transplanted my three girls in five gallon buckets full of supersoil which was three or four weeks ago I've only water them twice.

Once after I transplanted them and another about a week later. It's going on two weeks since I water them last.

The soil has good drainage, the buckets have good drainage. The soil feels moist so I don't water.

there inside under a 400 Mh. Now the only reason I can figure out why they have hold out so ong is that the soil is based off peat moss and I used alot of liquid karma and diamond nectar when making the soil.

LOL! Sponge Bob is cool! My grand-daughter loves that little dude!

I'm assuming that your plants are still pretty small (relative to a 5 gal. bucket). It just takes a long time for a small plant to use that much moisture - if it works, don't fix it! Let your buckets get real light before you water!

Okay, I gues there small for 5 gal buckets about a foot and 3/4. Your more an likely right they just need to grow into there new shoes.
