Substrate moisture retention

Worried my substrate wasn't moist enough at the time of transplanting these girls. Should I expect trouble soon? I'm watering as necessary, until the fabric pots begin to weep into their drip pans. Should I let them dry completely before next watering?

If you have been giving them a quarter of a gallon a piece at this point you're probably doing good. What I liked to do was water my plants until I get a little runoff out of the bottom and then let them dry until the top half inch of soil dried out. Then water again. I think you're on track. Happy growing!

Imo yes. But I've o ly have 2 grows under my thumb,but watering was my biggest hurdle, now if my soil is dry up to my 2nd knuckle I water until I see runoff then let dry and repeat.seems to be working great for me.good luck
