How am I doing?

The issue with your plants is watering. If you pour water until it runs out the drain holes when it's time to water, then wait for the soil to dry out completely (but before the plant starts wilting) you will never have a problem with watering again. 'Dry out completely' means exactly that. Not 2 inches, not 3 inches - ALL of the soil completely dry. Simply repeat that process throughout your grow and all will be fine with the watering end of things. This is how most experienced growers do it - I have been doing it for over 25 years - and it is the most natural and effective way to water. Keep in mind that the bloom cycle is a little trickier, only because you don't want your plants to do any wilting at all in bloom. (You don't want them to ever do it, but they will recover quickly while in veg, bloom is a little different.) Trust me on this. You'll be glad you did.
yeah i JUST figured this out... i was having a lot of trouble with my watering schedule, but i adjusted it just like you said and things have been great so far. I just transplanted into a larger pot so i will have to do a little adjusting, but i think i have it down pretty well. earlier in veg my plants were wilting and coming back to life pretty frequently, because i thought i was overwatering, but things look great now. thanks for your help. i hope that things go well with flowering...well we will know in a couple weeks i suppose...

either way, pictures coming soon i promise! need some feedback once you guys actually see how she is doing.

well she is now sitting happily in 1.8 gal of soil, so i figure thats about how many feet i should grow her. only problem is i figured out if she gets much bigger than 18" she will prob burn becauase of space limitations and she is currently standing tall at 7" so...

A) how does everything look?

B) should i consider initiating flowering soon? (just doesnt look that big at that makes me sad :( )

does anyone notice the slight curling on the larger leaves? at first i chalked it up to a nitrogen deficiency because it was accompanied by yellowing as well. fixed the yellowing with N and the curling stayed then i thought maybe too many nutes or in need of a transplant after watching ready set grow and now im just waiting to see how she reacts in the next few days since i just transplanted. i didnt flush the original soil before transplant. not sure if that is bad or not. none of the new biocanna nute has been added because the soil is taking a lot longer to dry out in this big pot. just let me know if anyone has any insight to this. otherwise, she seems to be doing fine. just wondering if there is anything i could do to make her a little more healthy. thanks again snowman for sticking around and helping me out.
