Alright, let’s talk about waterin’ them weed plants, you know, the cannabis. Folks keep askin’, “How often should I water my cannabis plant?” Well, it ain’t got a simple answer, see? It’s like bakin’ a cake, gotta feel it out.
First off, if you got your plants in pots, them little containers, you might be waterin’ ’em every 2-3 days. But if they’re in the ground, in good ol’ dirt, they might need waterin’ every day, maybe even more. Don’t just go pourin’ water all the time though, that’s a good way to drown ’em.
- Now, the best way to tell if they need water is to stick your finger in the dirt, yeah, just like checkin’ the oven. Go down a couple inches, about this much *shows finger length*, and if it feels dry, then yeah, give ’em a drink. If it’s still wet, leave it be. Simple as that.
- Some folks say waterin’ in the mornin’ ’round 9 o’clock or in the evenin’ is best. Don’t water in the middle of the day, cause the sun just gonna suck up all the water before it gets to the roots. Waste of good water, that is.
Now, how much water? Well, that depends too. Little plants, little water. Big plants, big water. You gotta use your common sense. Just water ’em good, till you see a little water comin’ outta the bottom of the pot. That way you know the whole root ball got wet.
But be careful, you don’t wanna overwater them. That’s worse than not waterin’ enough, I tell ya. If them leaves start droopin’ after you water, that’s a bad sign. Means the roots ain’t breathin’ right. Or if the leaves start turnin’ yellow, that’s another sign you’re givin’ ’em too much water. Just like givin’ a baby too much milk, they gonna spit it right back up.
Some fancy folks talk about “misting systems” and “fogging systems.” Sounds like a bunch of hogwash to me. I just use a good ol’ watering can. But if you wanna get all fancy, go ahead, ain’t gonna hurt nothin’. Some say it helps keep the plants clean and keeps them bugs away, but I ain’t never had that problem. My plants are always strong and healthy.
So, to sum it up, water your plants when the dirt feels dry. Not too much, not too little. Just right. It’s like makin’ gravy, you gotta get the consistency just right. And if you’re not sure, just wait a day or two. Better to be a little dry than too wet.
And remember, every plant is different. Just like people, some are thirsty, some ain’t. You gotta get to know your plants, see what they like. Pay attention to them, they’ll tell you what they need. It ain’t rocket science, it’s just common sense, the kind my grandma taught me.
So, don’t go frettin’ about waterin’ too much. Just use your finger, pay attention to your plants, and you’ll be fine. Growin’ weed ain’t that hard, long as you give them plants what they need.
One more thing, if it rains, don’t water them that day! Some folks just don’t think, I tell ya. The good Lord already watered ’em, no need to do it again. Just let ’em be and they’ll be happy as a clam.
And don’t forget, good soil helps too. If you got good dirt, it’ll hold the water better, and you won’t have to water as often. It’s all connected, see? Water, soil, sun… it all works together to make them plants grow big and strong.
So, there you have it. That’s all I know about waterin’ cannabis plants. It ain’t rocket science, just gotta pay attention and use your common sense. Now go on and grow some good weed!
