How are you building a big root system from cutting to flower?

If we are talking potting mixes a good dry cycle is the best way to let the roots search the whole pot for nutes and trace elements. They will fill the pot rather than get lazy from too frequent watering and basically grow right to the bottom and outside to circle the inside of the pot.

Waiting one extra day from when I thought I needed to water has ultimately doubled my average yield. While cutting down my water and nute needs.

I wait til the pots are dry 3/4 the way down the pot or more according to a standard probe moisture meter.

Once you check with the meter you can visualize how wet the pots are by their weight and just lift.

It still took one more day than I was paranoid already to wait before any plant started to wilt. And they came right back with water anyway.

Young plants get about a week between watering and mature flowers 3 days. I transplant up through veg as they get to the 3 day cycle.

I would post a pick of big buds in a little 3 gallon pot but we still have to wait for them to fix everything I guess.
Awesome..thats pretty much the way i do it to.. Even in the ground plants benefit from it. It does build good solid roots. Roots= Fruits.
