First time grower. What you guys think?

[CosmoGrows]

Ive heard watering to run off every other water is an option? But, who knows how experienced that grower was.

 

[CosmoGrows]

2 hrs after water ------------------------------------------------------------>>3 hrs

see how after3 shes happy again? was she just takin a sipp???

 

[basscaptain]

Okay basscaptain, heres a fuckin brain buster for you, i just popped back in the tent one more time, before bed, just to see her, see whats up. Fucking healthy/healthier!? this is about 3 hours after water. 1 hour later from that pic above. This is why i assume shes just drinking????

But, im taking your 2cents in for sure bass, not ignoring you, next time, im going to try and do more runoff, see if i can better the habit. i got you.

that looks good see if it was me I would give her a cup/a little more water now........ that plant should look like that in the morning/allday......

 

[basscaptain]

not 3 hrs after water but this is just my 2 cents here

Okay cool! I figured the same honestly, to get the inside nice and moist. i feel like alot ran out of the sides.

I haven't gone out to my tents yet this is just a picture obviously from a Wi-Fi camera lights came on an hour ago 50 minutes ago but in the picture you you could see the leaves standing up your leave should be looking like this all the time bro

 

[basscaptain]

I water everyday or every other... but that's just me

 

[CosmoGrows]

Mine only droop for the first 3 hours after every water roughly, thats what im trying to figure out. I think if i do what you said with the watering that may help, ima try it and ill see results from there.

 

[basscaptain]

thats why I was telling you before to get your stuff wet,,, then add a cup or 2 of water every few days don't let it dry out so far.....

Dude, i feel like im so close to fucking getting it, thats why im trying not to stress!!

 

[basscaptain]

Hold on I'm going out

 

[basscaptain]

Speaking of recovering, i just watered my plants and within an hour they drooped like hell, going to assume this is normal, and that theyre drinking as they bounce back like 5 hours later. Since they bounce back every single time, does that mean im still good and i didnt actually over water the plant, and it was just drinking? trying to differentiate overwatering-droop and the plant just drinking-droop lol. Figured id post my question here because its really not thread worthy and i figured rolandomota is learning along with me lol.

Most drop a little after water get are gulping and becoming heavy as long as they are flaring back out you are doin good !

 

[Moshmen]

Yeah, i am well aware i need more run off. So anyone that views the questions and answers, i already know i need more run off, just sketched out to water till more run off if my plants already looking over watered with that amount you know?

Newbie here but I’m playin with the water thing ! My plants seem to react differently some droop for a minute and some don’t I think there are many variables that contribute . In the end as long as you are dechlorinating and at room temp you should be good ! Don’t sweat the ltit things . My biggest problem is overthinking!

 

[Moshmen]

my 2 cents cause I have watch you guys.. But I'm new to indoors........ But have grown outdoors a long time..... But I don't think you have ever got the run off these guys are talking about...I think your pots stay to dry....... if water and the min the water hit the dirt and runs off that Dirt is to DRY all Ready...........................................

I don't do the run off thing either though......

Me either the only reason I run off is to check for salts and extra nutes are

I'm not doing all that at all right now...... I run by the seat of my pants:) all that stuff does is screw my head up....

That's why I said everyone does it diff he is getting in his grove just like you......
your stuff looks good sir......

@CosmoGrows Your plant has indica leaning traits like compact bushy growth with big fan leaves. When you water your changing the root pressure and transpiration rates so those big leaves can get heavy until the plant balances it all back out. You can get a cheap pet store thermometer for about $5 just to check the water temp. I'm not gonna say its needed by any means but doesn't hurt
