Two quick questions

[daveclark]

So here I am at day 13. My WW auto was transplanted yesterday into a 3 gallon pot with organic raised bedding soil mixed with organic potting soil.

1. Plant is outside and gets sun all day...how much should I be watering? So far, I have watered around the edge of the pot and within about 3" of the stem, but the pot is black plastic and seems to get hot in the sun. I have a soil moisture meter...is this a good gauge?

2. Thinking of Flora Nova grow and bloom for nutrients...seems very little is needed, like 3 ml/gallon. Does this sound about right?

Thanks,

Dave

Hi Dave,
very little water is needed during the first few weeks. The leaves should be pointing toward the sky. If they start to droop you are overwatering. A good tip is to grap a mister and mist around the base if you are not sure. The roots need to establish themselves and you want them to dig deep.

Nutes I will let others post, but if your soil is good you shouldn't need any for a while.

Try and use organic nutes if you can. Compost tea is good, but too early for your plants. Lots of good methods posted around the forums.
