More than 20 litres by day!!??. Per plant or in total? How many plants you have? Are ya growin in pots (n how much litres of volumen) or in mother land?
Here during Summer we reach max temps **inna the shade** betwwen 37 to 47 °Celsius...

I'm growing my plants outside in the ground. Temps are hitting around 100F (108 with heat index). I'm usually having to water my plants twice a day to keep them happy. The ground is dry and hard like concrete when I go to water them. Been watering them with Mega Crop at every watering and don't see any signs of toxicity yet so I'm going to carry on. One of them is growing so quick it will be ready to harvest in three to four weeks. These high temps will make them transpire fast so keep them well hydrated.

That's why your watering like u are because fabric pots of that size need watering every day when it's hot
If they were 3x bigger pots watering would only need to be done every second day

Using a moistening agent Ie... soap can reduce water times

My
my temps are always over 100 degrees everyday. I grow in a raised bed and it’s in a open hoop house. I water twice a day as well and feed every 3 days, I’m gonna bump the days up between feedings. I’m glad to hear your not showing any toxicity.

Per each plant? N daily?
Not only it is crazy...is like an ecological crimen.
Make numbers with me: to the 15 plants everyday 300 litres; durin a month 9.000 litres... Isent it crazy?

Like spoiled little bitches, they get anything and everything they want. Even if it was 50 gal of water/day.
