    Watering

    I'm using 7 gallon fabric pots with Ocean Forest potting soil, I seem to have to water every other day, is that normal? Temperature is 70-78 degrees so not too hot.

      Depends on how much water you're using. Just do not keep your medium saturated to the point of depriving the roots of oxygen. In other words, do not water too much too often. My five gallon FF mix would get light every other day at start of flower and I'd water with less than 2 quarts to keep H20/02 in balance.

        I water about 2 quarts to my flowering babies every other day in my 3-gal fabric pots. They are always hella light when I go to check them before watering

      If plants are old enough an large enough (pic would help) to see if you need more fluid to moisten the soil. If they are young an you just water in a circle then it's normal.

      If your watering the whole pot slowly 1-2 gal of water and it's about 20%running out bottom your good. Now it could be the soil just drys out fast cause it is light and fluffy and the roots have not circled around and created a tight mass in there. Your plant looks good

        Water till you have 10 to 20% run off. It's normal in a 7 gallon cloth pot the roots and soil recieve more air through the sides and bottom you could transplant into a 20 gallon like I did and the you'll only have to water every 2-3 days until it's well into Flower.
