Multi Strain Grow: New To This

[GrowingYoda]

Hey folks. Hope every one is enjoying there mid week. I'm spending my time is physio therapy right now lol. Anyways do as the title says I have multiple strains going right now, some auto some photos. Everything seems to be going well other then my watering sessions. I'm finding that my soil does not soak up the water well. Lots of areas stay dry. Now I just made 3 more buckets of soil but added more perlite. Any suggestions to my current watering problem? Also the following photos I well post I'm wondering if any look like under and or over watering.

In veg

Sorry for the led pictures. Not sure how to take a clear photo with phone with out taking plants out of room.
My issues with these r watering. Soil dont seem to want to soak up water or distributing evenly. Any suggestions on fixing this? The 3 bare pots I added more perlite in Hope's of correcting future problems. Do any of these look under water or over water?

Well do. I'll give it a read when I'm off work. Few hours to go.
Indoor growing is a lot different then growing out doors. Which is were most of my knowledge comes from. But definitely finding the feeding a bit different.
Thanks again guys

water more slowly... start with 1 cup of water, and then walk away for 10 minutes. The slower you water, the more water you will get that soil to be able to hold.

So last Friday I watered more slowly and tried 1 cup at a time. It went well. After the first hour or so I had a nice steady run off. I was away for the weekend so I just got to check the results and pots feel nice and soil feels better. Thank you Emilya. Here are some photos. I well get ones with better lighting in a day or two.

Day 27 veg: The mazar x great white shark has a visable more healthy look sense watering properly. Its top left

Day 27 veg: The gg4 x gsc bottom lef is just putting off sweet burnt sugar smells and also looks good

Day 18 veg: green crack auto top right looks strong and growing rapidly but some leaves have a yellow hue to them with some have yellowing edges. Looks good over all though.

Day 3 veg: grape roll up. Phantom og. Blue dream auto. All 3 look good. Beans were cracked Thursday night and dropped in there homes. They are up and have new growth already. I'm happy

Week 8 flower: master kush auto. Both look great and are putting off that classic sky rise smells. The one is a perfect Christmas tree with nice developer sites and are starting to pack on weight.
The other has way more stretch and seems too be about 3 weeks behind in flower even though they r the same bredder n strain and growing Mich differently.

Day 4 sense watering properly and better photos

 

[GrowingYoda]

I'm wondering if my soul may be running too hot? I got some yellowing of the leaves. Also my photos in veg are around a month old. Can I still fim/top them? Also how late in flower can I trim a autoflower?

 

[Emilya Green]

You can safely top/train your photo plants all the way into flower, whenever you choose that to be. I do not think it is recommended to trim and autoflower while in flower. Not sure why you think your soil is too hot... your plants look great. If you aren't running calmag, I would start and see if that can help with some of the leaf damage.
