to touch on what you guys are saying, I've been slightly playing around with my watering amounts the last few weeks once I potted them up into 1 gallon containers, I only watered them about 1/3 of a red solo cup the first time, and the soil was slightly damp already, and then I tried 1/2 a cup the next week, and then I did 3/4 of a cup the next week.. but point being that the soil I have is heavy, but it has a lot of air holes in them still, I tested it out first before potting them up (although I think next set of plants I will reduce the amount of actual soil and put some more pine chips and larger pieces in there so it's not so heavy) but anyways, I am not even coming close to being able to get water coming out through the bottom, but I don't want to do that now because the plant hasn't spread it's roots anywhere past that "solo cup" area that I had them in before.. but once they do get established I will water them more but less often, still not sure if I will water them until it comes out the bottom though, because I am still touch and go with edema, despite keeping the humidity down and not watering that much..
^^ you guys can kind of ignore that part, it's just me rambling.. but my point to what I was getting at above is this...
but anyways point being, I think they are saying that if you have a soil that can get wet but stay airy (like the type of soil I use when the plants are in solo cups) then I water until it comes out the bottom, which it has very good drainage, so it does pretty quickly.. but the soil I have my plants in now, in the larger container.. and once their roots are established, I think I will only water enough so that the soil is moist.. but not running out the bottom.. so if I can feel that it is damp in the bottom, then that is good for me
and yes, those plants look great.. look a lot like mine when they were smaller, so they are getting plenty of light.. and honestly that soil looks dry to me.. just dark rich soil.... but pretty dry, can't really tell on the left, but I would think he is watering them at the same times...I was gonna suggest that you could easily turn off 2 of the CFL lights assuming you had 4, because I thought they might just be used on those 2 plants, but I saw it was in a grow tent.. so you probably have other plants in there.. so never mind
