She looks good that normal the hot temp you want to keep your moist at all times 40-60% put some hay on top of soil to help with moisture issues! My garden gets bout 70 gallons of water a dayHi'ya folks!
Just thought I'd ask the best because I'm sure you're gonna know: What you're looking at here is a Skywalker OG in a 7 gallon smart pot. Albeit she's perky and erect in this picture she's wilting by mid-afternoon daily until watered.
Is she really drinking that much? I mean, if I soak her she'll go two days but when I hit her with the gallon jug she's looking parched the next day.
Oh yeah! She's heavily mulched with lawn clippings. I'm just blown away that she's drinking that much.She looks good that normal the hot temp you want to keep your moist at all times 40-60% put some hay on top of soil to help with moisture issues! My garden gets bout 70 gallons of water a day
They'll drink everyday brother, strong work thereOh yeah! She's heavily mulched with lawn clippings. I'm just blown away that she's drinking that much.
Dude... Your cherry pie is off the hook! Great vid.They'll drink everyday brother, strong work there
This little darling is 3 foot 6... She's just wide and well girthed.she'll definitely be drinking that much - that's a lot of plant mass for that size pot outdoors. I water my outdoor 3 gal pots almost a gallon a day right now and they're right around 2-3 ft tall and ready for a transplant.
Drip lines get clogged, someone has tobe there everyday to water atleast monitor the drip linesI really appreciate the input. Where folks on the other side of the hill are feeling low 100's I'm 10 to 15 degrees cooler on account of the bay breeze. Coastal climate is everything.
I'd added some vermiculite when putting my soil together in advance of summer conditions knowing there'd be long thirsty days. As most folks do I'm set for a little getaway and am trying to strategize how to keep her moist when gone. Drip lines...
Capillary action, in action!Fill a garbage can with water and put a rope hanging out of the top of the can down into or right above the pot with the other end all the way at the bottom of the can. The rope will naturally slowly wick out the water from the can, instant redneck dripring.

You're a God!Do it once while you are home to see how long the water lasts to see how big of a container you will need for your trip. Smaller size or different material string/rope may wick at different speeds.
