If you have a 3 gallon flower pot, How much water do you give your plant? How many ML do you water? Is it 100ml, 200ml, 300ml,
400ml, 500ml or more??????

Then.......

Is there a difference in ML when you are giving nutrients or is it all the same??????

All info for ya! today is day 30 in veg mode. Plant size 6 1/2 inches, 85 degrees, fan on medium and humidity is 45-50%. When light on humidity goes up when lights off to about 80% humidity....

i let my soil get dry between waterings and when it's time i give them a good soaking until water runs out of the bottom. make sure you get the soil completly wet and don't leave dry spots.

every 4 days? does it grow
You think 4 days is long? I throw a bit of clay into my organic soil for a higher CEC and it hold onto that water something fierce. Every 3 days in the summer and 4 days in the winter - sometimes longer. Gotta let that shit dry out. Late in flowering I go even longer to apply drought stress to the plant.

like others have said, water til the water comes out of the bottom of the pot.. normally around 1/2 gallon seems to do the trick for a 3-3.5 gal pot.. would guess every 3-4 days when you are heavy into flowering.. if you are in veg, i would guess watering every 5-7 days would be good...

It takes almost a gallon each to thoroughly saturate the few three gallon pots I'm running, most of mine are five gallon.
