The whole pot feels light when you water again. It doesn't have to be bone dry but it's significantly lighter than when it's saturated.
Ok I'll monitor the next couple days I don't imagine it should be too much longer but this is my first time using 5gal pots so I'm unsure how long they should retain water but I'll get it down eventually.The whole pot feels light when you water again.

Ya. The bigger the pot the longer the interval.Ok I'll monitor the next couple days I don't imagine it should be too much longer but this is my first time using 5gal pots so I'm unsure how long they should retain water but I'll get it down eventually.
If your looking for a small indoor plan to set up, I can give you some hints to help you make a great grow room work
, but I'm not here to sell you on anything from any sponsor
I was trying to identify by this method it's just hard to tell because the plants haven't been looking good so they always llok they need water.Watering for Soil Growers Only
Watering in Soil Watering plants gives many new growers anxiety issues. Because we want our plants to do the best they can, we over water and some even underwater. To help relieve the stress and confusion, this is sort of a step by step of what to do and look for when you grow in soil...www.thcfarmer.com
Really all those are good for is to tell you the soil in that spot is damp or not.When in doubt get a soil moisture meter.
I think they train ppl to water moreso than relying on them. After a few waters they should get the idea. I used mine early on. Not so much anymore.Really all those are good for is to tell you the soil in that spot is damp or not.
To get accurate readings with it, you need to stab it all around the soil and see if there are dry spots caused by underwatering.
Lets have a pic from the side please
Yeah, lets see them after removing all the dead.
I freak out when my temp reaches 80.Temp is most likely the culprit. You need a mini split ac.
That sounds miserable. Truly.You guys should try growing in Las Vegas...Outdoors...we have been 110° plus and have hit as high as 118F..
Damn dude I feel the hurt sorry I probably not going to be much help.. But the other gentleman that you are talking to now about the AC also gave you a what sounds like a really good information except very expensive! I know I certainly could not afford all that activated one but from what I've read most plants are not saying all plants but most of them stopped going after about 80 degrees unless they have been pumped full of CO2 which allows them to handle more heat oh, but do you have a root cellar or a basement? If you do I would suggest you move your cultivation area to there... But it sounds like maybe you did have one you would have already done that!? I use Happy Frog I only mix coconut coir chips with it gives you plenty of drainage and air flow to the roots! I also grow in my basement so I don't have a lot of experience for anything outside but your kind of outside but not outside oh, I mean by you're using a tent but it's outside or in a barn or something yeah I'm glad I don't have to do that! I have a very large basement, and too pretty small cultivation rooms one for veggie and one for budding approximately 10 feet by 8 feet each but Happy Frog and coconut courtship seem to work pretty well together I also top them off with worm castings and bat guano bat guano is only for the veggie room because of the high nitrogen cut your nitrogen by 50% at least when you to go into photosynthesis 12 on 12 off but you also may want to check into some diatomaceous earth food grade make sure it says a food-grade on the bag if it doesn't say food grade there's a good chance it could be toxic that will kill off all bugs in your dirt but it only works when it's dry the Dust hello is the waxy coating from the body of the bugs and then they die within 48 hours very very like I said I probably won't be much help but there's something anyway good luck man help me get those temperature down or pump a lot of CO2 inDo you have one to recommend? I'm not sure how to fit one into a grow tent either.
Dude I don't think there's anything fun about Vegas but with those temperatures you but I don't have a big mold problem and a lot of bugs that live in the most humid areas! But yeah I hear you I used to work for a Roofing company local 36 company in San Fernando Valley in California that also has a shop in Vegas I almost had to go down there and work thank God I didn't have to I mean I don't mind some either. Not to lose brain boiling temperature-500 degree Hot Tar would be no fun at all I mean it reaches those temperatures in the San Fernando Valley almost every summer but you have it for much longer! And no I wouldn't want to try to cultivate anything there unless I was Filthy Rich with a refrigeration unit in my entire house I certainly wouldn't cultivate outside that's for sure! Even your regular household air conditioner would allow me to cultivate inside! So why even try outside I don't know anyway dude you enjoy your boiled and baked brains if that's what you're doing and good luck to you, because seriously heatstroke is pretty dangerous and kills people... Kowabunga and if you're pulling it off more kudos to youYou guys should try growing in Las Vegas...Outdoors...we have been 110° plus and have hit as high as 118F..
Hey man I hope you didn't think I was insulting you or anyting because if you did but please don't think that way! I didn't know they didn't have basements in Vegas but there's a lot of places if you don't have basements like Florida do the water lines and most of the houses in the San Fernando Valley in California is do not have basements that I can remember but I wasn't able to grow there anyway and that 25 mile law sucks dude I like the way you used the 7-Eleven as the reference LOL well I don't live in California anymore I left before recreational was legal but I did have my medical card when I was there and went to the collectives actually if you look at my scar on my avatar and the car I designed for Timothy Leary medical dispensary I mean the artwork on it. I live in Michigan now just one 7/ 11 I think in the entire state and it's not that far from me believe it or not I was surprised when I saw it but don't get me wrong basement-dwelling has his problems I can't afford those expensive like I have use a T5 fluorescents 5000 lumens / bulb so I do have a stretch I need more lumens but can't afford them! I'm hearing you're putting out some T fives than a pumping out of 7,000 looms for Bowl but I can't find them yet and I don't know how much they are my lucknot sure if you were responding to me....In Las Vegas, THEY DO NOT DO BASEMENTS!!!!Would be great if they did as the subterranean would lower the temps and make it feasible to afford indoor growing. Something about "caliche"...a hard rock like substance that is too costly to dig out. Either that or it is an exccuse to keep the cost of building lower and reap higher profits. Vegas is a town for the juuiced / connected people...not the every day Joe's. They even passed a law prohibiting growing your own if you live with 25 miles of a dispensary....they are now at every corner, more than 7-11's. It was like someone sat down with a map and made sure NO ONE was outside the 25 mile radius. After having $1500+ electric bills...I only grow what will work outdoors. Indoors is too expensive here in the summer months and that is almost 6 months long. I lost a few plants but if I plant at strategic times, using particular cultivars, I can get over most of the heat issues, not all.
My sativa's are faring ok. My buds get airy but the potency is still there. I do have to watch foxtailing but sometimes it is a blessing for packing on the trikes. I do better in cloth containers than the ground as I can spray the outside of them to cool them off, move them to shady locations...
