alrity so im just wondering on what you people's opinions are on when to water your plant , i know theres the whole stick finger into soil method , but does your plants actually show u they need water ? i water every 3-4 days but my room gets really hot and the branches start to hang down do u think this is to do with watering or heat/humidity

Ya man I wait for my girls to start drooping until they look pretty sad, then I add a solo cup+ of water/nutes.

Your roots need oxygen and overwatering can cause root rot. Sometimes I'll even let them sit through the dark period even after theyre a little droopy to ensure the roots get plenty of oxygen.:joint:

id just water after you notice , right away . why let it sit there and stress cause its thrisy i think it would make more sense to feed b4 lights off to maximize bud production during flower (dark period ). overwater is ez to avoid if you know your plants , give what its needs b4 you starve it b4 lights out :mrgreen:

I just tip my pots but occasionally I will use a moisture meter. Letting them droop is not a good method for telling when it's time to water. Letting this happen once or twice won't hurt anything but you can stress your plants unnecessarily by letting them dry out too much too often. :weed:
