Need Help with Info on Watering Outdoor When It's Rainy?

[tardis]

I keep my plants outdoor in pots to flower and I have one plant out there right now which has been outside for about a week now. Its on a table so I can water it better. I last watered with normal Water on Sunday, 1 week Friday with nutes. Normally I need to water every 2-3 days, but because of the rain it gets soaked in series of rainstorms durnig the days... So It has not showed any signs of needing watering. My worry is its not getting its nutes. I mean it looks healthy, its thriving and loving this rain water, only now are the whtie hairs forming in groups for the first day, but should I mix in some Purva Vida Bloom in with some water and water despite the rain to be sure it gets its nutes? Or should I just let it go. Its been in a pot of Foxfarm Oceanforrest Soil for about 2 months and a week I think.

Should I just not give it nutes, or will a little watering despite the natural watering it gets already cause a problem??? Looking for the lesser of two evils. don't want to sacrifice quality or yield at this pivotal time in the plants flowering time.

The rain water might be acting as a type of natural "flush" and might be starving your plant. I would feed it too probably if it wouldn't stop raining...
If you have some extra dry nutes laying around, this might be a good time to use them.
Or maybe buy some dry bat guano or earthworm casting?
Either way, it sounds like some dry nutrients would help you problem.
You know; just sprinkle it on the soil and shit...blah blah blah

I would water with nutes anyways but to be honest I have no experience with this issue as I only grow indoors. My only thought is the rain water like BEANSLY said is probably flushing your soil naturally so adding nuts even though it gets wet should still help it because if the rain comes all day and it is soaked all day and still looks ok then should not be an issue adding another 1/2 gallon with nutes to it.

Thanks Beansly & My420! I watered with a Gallon (only realized i misread My420's post on 1/2 gallon) with my one Blueberry Gum girl outside. Now about 6 hours later its droopy and definitely overwatered. But i'm not to worried about that, because like I said I think feeding the soil is the lesser of two evils. better a little overwatered than inadvertant flush after one week.

I will try to keep how she's doing updated so other med patients who find themselves in a similar circumstance can see how my way turned out... Power to the noobies!

If you think it'll keep raining like this for some time use a slow release pellet fertiliser so you don't have to keep watering it to give it nutes.

You have a good point, but i'm excited to see the results of my Pura Vida Bloom + General Organics Bio Bud. I would hate to throw off the variables, but you are correct that would be the best action if I wasn't a stickler for variables.

Update! Its now around 14 hours later, and it rained all night with pauses of cloudyness between torrential downpour. Bridges between towns on the island I live have been closed due to major flooding (major rainstorm right now).
BUT my plant is looking healthy and happy! The tips of leaves all over it are now reaching for the sky! It is happy!! So giving it nutes WAS the right decision for me, and that is how I will do it again in the future too.
