good luck with your first grow. My experience is that watering frequently is a bad thing for cannabis. I also did it it for the first days and early on it was ok, but you want to change quickly to a watering shedule where the surface is dry for a longer period of time and the roots take water from deeper areas of your pot. Im my opinion/experience the plants need a little bit of dry stress after a couple of days to encourage roots to grow deeper.

@PDreer, I dont know. sorry I only just saw that you are mostly using coco coir. I have no experience with that. forget what I said 😨 However, in general, my experience is: better too dry than too wet

I am only watering to runoff at least 2 inches away every 4 to 5 hours. Then during my off time it gets no water for ten hours give or take a couple daily. I have self feeding pots but that won't work until the roots reach the bottom. Is ten hours daily without water enough? It's usually dry when I check it.

@gottagrowsometime, thank you very much. I haven't been able to update recently so I just dropped the last few weeks worth of pics. Eagerly awaiting the results of this first grow and so far they look pretty good from what I've been told by more experienced growers.
