Heavy drinking means health metabolism.
Also, flowering plants drink more.

Yeah, long ago I lost a DWC grow because the plants seemed to double or even maybe triple their water uptake in like 1 weeks time. I was real busy at the time and the res ran dry before I realized it.
Also a different environment will have different needs, sounds like it was recently moved outside? That'll definitely affect water use.

So if i drink a 12 pack of beer and a pint of vodka a day that means have a health metabolism too?

is there a substitute you can use for something like peat moss? i have a plant in ground and it has the same drinking problem. i just took some POTTING soil and mixed with some perlite and sand and patted it on top of my soil next to the stem, and watered with half a gallon of water. then used my fingers to mixed the muddy mix in slightly with the original ground soil, and watered with another half gallon. this seems to be stopping the quick evaporation. i guess ill find out tomorrow!
