First grow ever (keeping it simple)

@jourelemode, 1/10th container size for water, like every 4 or 5 days. I have been using this ratio and it's been perfect, that's why I'm recommending it.

@jourelemode, so for watering, it was past on to me by @stick. With seedlings and early vegging you want to water about 1/10th the bucket size. And later, in larger containers, with more thirsty plants you may go up to 15-20% of the container size. This only works if plants are in proper containers. Seedlings only need a very small amount if water and should be in small medium like rockwool or other types of grow plugs, then moved to bigger container (like solo cup) when they outgrow that one. It's like you don't put a baby in a regular car seat, they need a baby seat (grow plug in seedling tray), then when bigger need a toddler seat (solo cup), then when they outgrow that they get a regular car seat (which in this example is their final pot like 3-5 gallon).

@BeefWellingtons, i actually have 1 in a solo cup right now which sprouted yesterday. Decided to try this method as per your instruction last week, just to see the difference with both ways of growing. Regarding the 2 cups of water, tomorrow ill check the soils moisture and will only water as needed. 1 thing though, i see in a lot of peoples diary that they water between 0.13 to 0.26gal per plant per day...even in the early weeks. So this is not accurate? Ive been basing my watering on that and some youtube vids i watched.

@jourelemode, they will probably pop for you, just wanted to suggest an easier/more effective method for the future.

@BeefWellingtons, thank you for your input! Ill give that a go if worst comes to worst but i hope not. 🤞

@Fast_Buds, thanks! Im excoted and hope everythong will go well
