This is my first time growing, I hope im doing well so far.
Im still searching for the best method for bigger yields. The tent is 1,4m x 1,4m x 2m and only have 7 plants.
Im trying to find a good watering schedule
Im open to any suggestion.
THANK YOU
I recently transplanted and watred with 1/4 of pot total volume (1,75l of 7l pot) with only water, no nutrients.
Its been 6 days and the soil still very wet but need to add nutrients because some leaves are turning yellow, Should I water again anyways?Change my watering method?TY
Shaggy has some good points..
Over watering is a very real and common/easy problem to get.
You can weigh your container wet and dry so you know when to water... but you WILL LEARN OVER TIME how to move it around and judge how wet/dry it is.... like picking up a gallon of milk... you know how much is left...
It takes some time and you will mess up....
UNDERWATERIG is generally easy to fix and the plant is fine the next day...
overwatering and your plant takes weeks to recover and you will probabally get bugs...
Best of luck, hope this helps
Your day temp is a bit low.
If you can get temp to 26 with more light or other heat source,your plants will evaporate more and intake more from soil faster.soil will dry faster.
If its wet i wouldnt water now
If the top near the stem is still wet i would not water. If it is dry you can add some water to the top but don't go crazy. The reason may not even be a nutrient deficiency but the PH being off to where it is locked out. The PH usually falls and rises depending on how wet/dry the soil is. Don't want it too wet or you will end up some funky egg smelling soil usually caused from Anaerobic Bacteria not only that but your chances of getting Root Rot are high. Water based on weight would be the best bet as they all require different amounts really. GL.
Thought I would never overwater my plants, and here I am.
The growth was not significant, for one week all plants took a beating due to overwatering, they stopped growing for about a week and just 2 days ago recovered. Also I cut the feeding because gave them a lot, that also caused some trouble.
I LSTd 2 plants because I wanted to try the method, also ill be topping 2 other plants and the rest do nothing so I can compare yields for the next growth.
This is week 4 update, learned a lot of new things.
Thank you for your comments and recommendations.

For some reason the plants are not growing so fast, but they look healthy.
Climate is always optimum and watering schedule is also fine, im struggling a bit with the nutrients, some of the lower leaves are turning yellow and then falling, I believe its nitrogen deficiency, so ill give em more. Also sometimes see some tiny bugs flying around, other then that everything is great.
Any suggestions on what could be the problem of the slow growth?
