Hempy watering time frame

Tossing up on moving to hempy buckets from soil, mainly for the extra growth rate but I'm worried I may have to water to often as I like to go away for a few days every so often.

My Q is; in the middle of flower can you get away with watering every 3rd day?

Not being sarcastic, but there is a dedicated Hempy thred just above this one. Any question you might have on watering, pot size, medium choices will all be there or easily answered. Hempy is by far one of the easiest as well as awesome outcome styles of growing.

I don't see the sarcasm?

This is the drain to waste forum. Yes there is a hempy thread. I'm not sure you needed to reply to this thread and not supply an answer to the one Q I asked.

Look, your the same clown spreading stuff on a lighting company because you failed to read shippings costs. If you want to be a clown than you can try to grow in a way that you OBVIOUSLY don't know about on your own and not have good results. Good luck.

ahh did I make you look stupid on that thread to? Damn that thread was a lot of fun!

Look, I appreciate your desire to be a mod or hall monitor or whatever the position of power you seem to aspire to but if you have nothing of relevance to add to the thread could you wander off and annoy someone who cares what you think.

Ive asked a simple Q and have no interest in your pre school trolling.

Ive done a drain to waste using perlte/vermiculite before. Flooding twice a day in flower. Ive never gone full auto like you though. That's pretty damn sweet.

I normally run different strains so I would prefer to water manually.

Hey, I'm new to rollitup but seasoned in so many other ways. Could you share the link for the dedicated Hempy thread, please. I currently have some hempy experiments going, and next grow will be completely Hempy.IMG_2755.jpg IMG_2895.jpg

i run hempies with 20% promix , 80% perlite, and average watering every third day all the way through, every once in a while you get a heavy drinker and have to throw in an extra watering for it now and then, but three days seems to be the average.

I'm assuming that the Promix is a soil product? I'm using 3parts Perlite and 1part Vermiculite in my current hempy grow.

promix is mostly peat moss, with a little coco, and a light dusting of perlite, depending on which mix you get, they have several varieties.
its what i use instead of the vermiculite. it holds water a little better, but still doesn't get really bogged down unless you use too much, thats why i keep it at 20%.

In a non related idea...I think Lucky Luke is AOK. Maybe it is because we are Canadian/Australian. We get each other mate eh. :D
