how many water to my plants

il_zed · 04-27-2010, 09:50 AM

hi guys.

I own three northern lights and another plant who I don't exatly know which strain might be.

they are growing under a screen of green and actually the are on the third week of flowering.

When I studied about how to grow them, I read a lot of time to feed them with water and nutrients (I'm using bio bizz line) like one day water, then one stop and then the second day without water check if they are on need of water or not.

what it's happening is that my plants look like to need water everyday.
when I feed them, and the day after I look at them, they look like they start to be on lack of water...... I don't know how can I explain, the lover leafs start to look like dry, like your shop's salade bought days ago.

now I am watering them once a day, what do you think, is it the right way or maibe it's better to live them one day without water so with the soil more dry and on this way whit more oxigen even if the plants look lito to soffer it?

thanks a lot
bye bye

the only reason can be that I prepared the soil with almost 45% of ground and 55% of coconut, just because I read that they need as much oxigen than water and nutrient

Haha no shit ^

If youre using that much coco then they probably won't hold water for long.

i have noticed that when my plants act like this its time to put them in a new
clay pot,it might be too late now for this situation but keep it in mind for your next grow!
