Purple Jesus update #2

Hey All,
I am in day 14 of my experiment and things seem to be going well.. I have had a few missteps as expected, but for the most part, i'm o.k.

I do have a question regarding my largest girl...

She seems to want to lean over and it feels like my soil is dry on top and her roots may not be deep enough.. any suggestions are welcome. I think I will hold off watering for one more day (4th day) because the pot is about 8 inches and near the bottom is still somewhat moist..

Am I better off drying her rather than over h2oing?
Again Thanks in advance for your help..

well the biggest plant u got 1st 2 pics .. Looks like it wants water

I would think it would be better to let her get a little dry. The roots will spread out looking for water. If it's to moist they don't need to go anywhere. Make since?

I have to ask, were did you get Purple Jesus. I have a couple of seeds of it, but thought it wasn't very common.

well are you growing outside or in that grow box.... frist off it seems like the steams are weake you you have fans.. fans make fake wind ... the fans will make you steems strong... keeep the support on them and give them a lil wind...

Looks ok. If you plant is leaning just prop her up for a while and as for watering, wating is good to get air down ther but when the leaves start to wilt hurry up and water and she will stand agian in 2ish hours.
Best of luck

Thanks all.

BigBud, The stems are actually very strong. I felt them to see if they were weak and they were stiff ad firm. My issue is that the soil seems loose and when I poke a fingeron any side my girl looks like the loose soil is letting go of her grip or roots...I do have an 8 inch intake fan blowing on the side. . As for where I will ultimately grow her, I wanted it to be outdoors after Veg. ??!! Shouls I start them on a 18-6 cycle or keep up my currnet cycle of 24-7?

Thanks

I plan to double the height of my Rubbermaid by stacking anotherone on top. I could end up growing 1 or 2 in there but I really want an Outdoors plant.

You should pack your soil then, enough to support the base of the plant, but not too hard.
