i need help i started to soon. i just started my set up without doing much research i wanted to start right away and now im worried. can someone guide me. im using fox farm grow big with roots organic soil. how do i start
I use the weight of the container to tell me when it is time to water. When the container is feather light I water until I have water coming out of the drainage holes. Then I wait for the container to become light again. That system works great for me. I know others that wait until the plant starts to droop slightly before watering.
Going by the weight of the container takes some practice to be able to measure well. I recomend pushing your finger a few inches into the soil - if you feel any moisture, it isn't time yet.
Good luck!
