Watering schedule and possible root loss

[MJmadscientist]

Hey everyone! So I’m in the very early stages of flower. It’s hot here and dry. Like it’s not raining anymore and probably won’t for about 3 more weeks. It gets dry here.
Recently with the dying back of the vegetation surrounding my pots, the heat, and probably lots of growth. I’m getting dry soil in my fabric pots.
This usually isn’t an issue but I’m getting a day or less out of watering before it’s dry and light again.
Should I just water daily, twice daily, or stick to a wet dry cycle?

With it being fabric pots and the drying out I worry about the root ends dying off and loosing root mass.

Any advice appreciated. I normally don’t run dry like this but these plants are larger than what I’m normally running in 5 gallons. That may be contributing.
I just don’t want to stall growth or mess the hairs up with it getting too dry.

No droop or weak. I just don’t know how they can be so light when picked up and they look dry. I’m watering more than normal but I’m assuming evaporation is a lot of it. I worry about feeding schedule too.
I like to make sure they never need more. The build up is real when evap happening and a steady supply of rain in the past kept that from being a problem.


I also have some septoria leaf spot that started. Though I believe I may have that on the mend. It’s slowed to a near crawl and possibly not spreading at all anymore. Just old infection that wasn’t showing before treatments.
Fingers crossed. Extra watering worries me too because of that dang fungus though. My jugs gotta go into and under the foliage because of the massive spread for the pot size.
