How many hours a week do you spend on your plants?

15hrs a week on average.

Are you soil or hydro?

1 1/2 hours each morning and then about an hour at end of day. Plant care and cleaning mostly.

Im down to about an hour per day. tending twelve plants indoor grow, in my basement. i built a room that is fairly self functioning, i use hps for flower and cmh for veg. i do have a seperate cloning room , more of an appendage of the main room. i have limited space, and try to squeeze as much as possible out of my lights to remain cost effective. i do a semi perpetual grow , putting a few mothers into stasis while i vacation or just take a break from it, Ive been doing this for six years and its become fairly routine.

It's how ever many hours to fix the current situation that's going on which just seems to flow from one thing to the next...quite tiring at times the endless bullshit

Late in flower 10 minutes every other day to add 5 gallons of water to keep up.

Yes there were many other hours spent with assembly and getting to this point but I think , very little for such a great reward.

I would say i average less than an hour a week, this includes just going to take a peek..

I take the summer off..

How in the world do you do it in that amount of time? I spend that much time mixing water...lol

Admittedly, my grows are never more than 4 plants in flower and a few mothers and clones at any given time. Takes about 5 minutes (if that) to mix up a batch of nutrients and a few minutes for routine maintenance (pruning, etc.)

That said, trimming takes a couple hours. Easily the worst part of growing.

I don’t clock in and out when it comes to working in the garden.
It’s the activity in my life where I can relax and enjoy the process.

the amount of time spent will be so much different for everyone, as there are so many variables, mostly plant count, level of automation, and experience.
