That sounds like a good idea drfarm. But from the sound of it, it seems like I'm watering too much when I do! See, I have been waiting till they are really dry then putting each plant in a large bowl and giving each one 8oz. of dist. water through the soil. Around 2-3 oz will drain through into the bowl. I let the plant sit in the water for about 3 minutes and go on to the next plant and reuse the water left in the bowl.
Now as I am thinking of it, if there are nutes in that run off water and I reuse it on the next plant then wouldnt that eventually cause a build up of nutes?
And you said your using 1 1/2 to 2 oz water? I have been using 8 oz which was enough to saturate all the soil in the cup and drain some off....too much?
