Hello my friend 😉
By following these few simple tips you will get an optimal result throughout your culture:
Cannabis is a plant that does not like to receive a continuous light watering. It is imperative to water it in large quantities, then wait until the soil is dry before watering again!👍
To calculate the amount of water needed for each plant, follow this rule:
The volume of water to be donated during each watering should represent at least about a quarter of the volume of the pot!!
Examples:
for a 1L jar, give 0.25L of water with each watering
for a 4L jar, give 1L of water with each watering
for a 12L jar, give 3L of water with each watering
for a 30L jar, give 7.5L of water with each watering!👍
To give such a volume of water, it is often necessary to water in half (see three) times, slowly and evenly over the entire surface. Arrange good cups under the pots, these will fill with water that will rise in the pot by capillarity in less than a day. It is also very important to use a good quality soil, with a good water retention capacity but which also ensures good drainage (this must contain perlite, and/or coconut, etc.).
Once you've done this watering, you can see that your pots weigh very heavy, and are difficult to move.
You must now wait a few days by regularly underweighting the jars with your arms. When they are very light again, you can water again!!
Because water weighs much heavier than soil, a waterlogged pot weighs several times the weight of a pot of a plant ready to be watered. With a little training, you will learn very quickly to underweight your pots to know when a plant is thirsty.
It is a technique that is both very easy and very effective, and can be applied to all potted plants!👍
Good luck for your grow 🤞🌱
May the force be with you 💪
