    Default What is a good water/feed rotation for flower period in coco/perlite/clay mix?

    Day #46 (Flower Day #4) - 16-11-2010

    In veg I use to water every 3rd day with 2 liters of water for each of them (they are in 11 liter pots) but now it seems, even after watering/feeding them every 2nd day, they get very sad and droopy on the 2nd day.

    Should I feed every day, or just use clean water every day and only add food every other day, or what is the best rotation for water/feeding them in flower stage?

    You should let the soil dry out (90% dry) before watering again (100% wet).

    sweet setup btw

    Thank you.

    That's what I was told. But it cant be good for the plants, to hang their head like they where depressed or something. The soil is pretty dry after 24h, but not totally dry like it is after 20.

    24-27c when lights on and 18-19 when lights off. (allot warmer in direct light)
    50% air humidity just now (but I did just water them 2h ago)
    Advanced nuets.

    All that info is also in the first page of my Diary

    Not too sure on the coco/clay/perlite mix, i know that the ph should be between 5.8 and 6.0, in soil myself and water whenever they are dry whether it is 2 days or 5 days, but i don't worry too much if they droop abit as they will soon perk up plus i know they have taken everything from the soil once they start too drop before the next water lol
