Im using 30 litter pots. Im giving you them about 2-3 litters of water every 1-2 days. Do you have an idea of how much water i should give them and how much often i should water them

I am terrible at estimating the weight of the pots by lifting them, so in order to know how long I can wait before watering, I weigh the pot with dry soil before I transplant. Then you can weigh it again after you transplant, water and let the plant droop a little. Be sure to write down how long it takes, and the weight of the pot. Then you can weigh the pot to see how long until you need to water again.

Also one more question when transitioning to flowering would the lights need to be at 600 watts for them plants to thrive or is it ok to put the watts down to maintain the temperature?

Re: questions above

1. I never spray the leaves, it can invite powdery mildew.
2. 30 degrees C = 84 degrees F, the temp should never be higher than 82 F, ideal temp is between 78 - 82 degrees F.
3. Keep the lights on 100% until the end of growing/flowering. You can never have too much light, but keep it at least 24-36" higher than the top leaves (the "canopy") of the plants.

Thank you so much for the help. Just when i keep the lights on 100% the temperature does go way to up.i have 12 lights on thats why im asking if its ok to have some lights on 400watts and some 600 watts to get the right temperature.
