The hotter it is, the more water she will go through and the quicker the soil will dry out. Use the same .5" or first knuckle test to determine if she needs water. The leaf tips curling down and drooping are both common symptoms of underwatering. Your plants look like they need water. Just be careful because overwatering can look the same. Keep in mind too that because of evaporation and a high rate of perspiration, your plant will use up more water, but not necessarily more nutrients. This can result in your medium becoming too hot with feed. Pay close attention to your runoff or dial the nutes back a little bit on really hot days. It helps to pick up your pots occasionally just to get used to the weight of the pot wet vs dry. Some can use this method very accurately to tell when they need to water.

wateringregime is one of the hardest parts to learn in myopinion I water my plants daily.... for me its the best way to go sure , the girls got enough even in the summertime// if its hot outside , i do it daily The goal is to have a wet-dry cycle. even if its a short one There are alot of technics to mamag a good watering One is the pot weighin method...... you weigh the pot on a scale if its dry...... then you give her water... and just water again if you reach the dry weigh very similar is the pot lifting method Lift the growing pots if the plant is dry.... try to remember this weigh.... just water again if you reach that weigh another one is the knuckle method water your girls, and then do it again if the soil is knuckledeep dry Another is the adapting method.... if you start a grow, water with small shotglasses---- then checkback with your knuckles // or potlifting ... and go on with bigger glasses if she gets bigger, and the amount is not enough Overwatering is abad thing its ainvitiation to alot of pests and issues.... but underwatering in flowermode is bad too So it will take alittle time to find your method
