2 question about feeding and how often
Snakekingstarted grow question 3 months ago
Hey guys I have a question about feeding my plants!
Is it good or bad to give water to your plant every day? I mean i can give my plant 5 liter every day or 10-12 liter for 2 days
And an other question is can i give only water in some days for lowering the cost?

You’re outside so I’d say that your watering will be directed a lot by weather. If it’s raining or not, how hot it has been and all that. I would say you also probably can’t check the weight of the pot as you’re under trellis. I would stick my finger down in the soil a bit to check the soil. If it’s dry or pretty close to dry and not going to rain then water.
As for feeding, that’s upto your plant really. Manufacturers have guidance for you with a schedule and ratios, but sometimes a girl might want more or less. You definitely don’t have to feed with every water typically (unless your plant demands it). Most recommendations are water, water, feed & repeat.
Hope you find what makes your girls happiest. It looks like they’re doing well though already with whatever you’re doing

Soil is every other watering but never give coco plain water. Iv never feed any plants daily but its all down to size of pots, type of pots. At the very least let the top half inch completely dry which will probably take days with soil.5ltrs sounds a lot never mind 10.What you growing trees in barrels.

Hello Snakeking, you want the top soil to be completely dry in between waterings. Let the top 2 inches (5 centimeters) dry out before you water again. When you do this it will be the perfect dry/wet cycle.
With nutrients you want to give every other watering. The schedule should look like this.
Only water - water with nutrients - only water - water with nutrients.
You also want to make sure that you water till runoff to prevent nutrient salts building up inside your soil causing nutrient lockouts. This means that you give water till 10% from the given amount runs off the bottom of your pots.
Again, your plants look great buddy! 💚

Cannabis like a wet/dry cycle. I go by heavy the pot is. If it’s still heavy no water. When it gets light and leaves droop a little it’s time for water. I water to get 10-20% runoff and it may take 3-4 days before I water again sometimes even more if the pot is still heavy.
As for nutrients I’m not going answer that as I myself have a hard time with feed charts and feeding schedules, I’d say that is my biggest weakness when it comes to growing. So I’ll leave that up to the more knowledgeable growers to give you that advice.
