When do you guys water the whole pot? Do you guys wait till the plants a certain stage? Or do you guys water till a little run off from start to finish?

Thanks for the replies. The last 2 or so grows I switched up from watering the whole pot in early veg thinking it would help with Nitrogen Tox. You get from FFOF. I also have had smaller grows? Or maybe they're normally like this? This plant I'm growing now is this big at like day 30. It's Alaskan Thunderfuck Auto from Growerschoice seeds. It's suppose to be tall and high-yield - 500g - sm2.


Soil - Foxfarm Ocean
Watering - Every few days
Temp - low 80's
Humidity - 60's
Light - Vespertica 2500 - about 18 inches above at 75 percent
Pot - 3gallon

In the early veg stage I like to water in a spiral pattern, I don't fully saturate the pot. The reason for this is so the roots seek out the water.
Once they're established and have a good root system, I saturate and water to run off.

I mix my Ocean Forest soil with Happy Frog soil.
2 parts Ocean Forest to 1 Part Happy Frog.
I put 4 cups Ocean Forest in my pot, then 2 cups Happy Frog and mix together. I then put the same amount in again and mix.
I then add 1.75 cups of perlite and mix in.
Repeat until pot is full.

I see you posted data sheets on how tall and how much yield you should get from the plants.
In order to achieve those numbers they advertise, your environment has to be stable. Lighting, ventilation, nutrients, temp, humidity, etc all has to be on point to achieve what they advertise.
Training the plants help achieve higher yields as well.
Autos should be in 5 gallon pots or bigger IMO.

Might consider changing your blurple light out for something full spectrum.
