less watering, more nutrients?

im not having any obvious nute problems.


Im not sure if anyone helped me, but i think imma just start watering more.


i usually wait until the top layer of soil is completely dry, and usually dig my finger into the soil about an inch or two to see if its still wet, but i will no longer be making sure its 100% dry, and just go ahead and water anyway

conclusion: will now be watering twice a week, whether or not the soil feels dry enough.
Dude .. 10$ mosture meter.. saves 100$ of dollars.

I use botanicare too I love that stuff, you might need calmag once your soil gets depleted.
It sounds like you might have had your mix too heavy, next time use more perlite. But do let the soil completely dry,even if it takes weeks it helps the roots develop.

ok thanks, the soil dried a bit quicker since we took the 400 out and added a 1000.

That will certainly help in more ways than one.
Hows your ventilation, do you have any oscillating fans in there, they will help the plants draw more moisture from the soil mix as it transpires through the leaves.:joint:
