Quick question on autoflower

How are these ladies looking? Are the leaves drooping?

They may appear a little droopy. Did you just water them? Or are they due for a water. Could be too much water or not enough. Need more information to be answered. Sometimes after watering they tend to droop too. Otherwise they appear healthy.

I watered about 3 days ago, soil looked moist, I was hesitant but, I just gave them a little bit of water. How often should I water? Thanks.

What are they planted in? Like a soil mix or coco or?? The weight is the key to watering either way

You usually want to go wet and dry then water again until run off. Then wait til dry again and repeat. Go by weight you will get a feel for it over time.

When you say “run off” do mean when the water starts coming out of the holes in the bottom of the container?

Yes that is what I mean by run off. Some measure the PPM parts per million with a tester but I seldom do and let the girls respond by how they look more. I dont have time for biology lol.

I’m going to wait a couple of weeks for a good established root system then transplant into 4 gallon containers. Yes autos, one OG Kush and two Sour Diesels.

In 4 weeks they most likely will be in flower. At that point I would leave them be and not stunt them or set them back. Autos are fast bloomers.

@Lynyrdsky yep, biology sucks. i never enjoyed thinking about or playing with dead frogs and stuff :laughing: Professor would say, “Start with your scaple right there.” i’d say to her, “you do know that’s his poop hole don’t you? and lady we learned that the hard way in high school. It Stanks”

My rule of thumb is don’t wait for the plants to show you they need water if your in soil like I am I test the soil with my finger iof the top 2 inches feel dry and adjust your watering to maybe half as much as your use to using try a runoff every 7 days to check your runoff EC iof you have kept everything in line your goopd top go. Thats my way of watering 5 tears running.

I just saw that on a video, thanks for your response.:v:
