Watering question(s)?

[evilgenius]

First off let me tell you what my problem is. I have 3 plants. 1 of them is doing very well, and the other 2 are ok, but could be better. Some of the nugs on the 1 plant are 2-3 grams already, and the other 2 are only like .5 - 1gram, now when I wanter one day with nutrients, and then 2 days of just water, and repeat that cycle. I am going on week 4 (monday) of flowering and not sure what to do, and want to make sure I am watering correctly.

This is what I mix when I water.

I take 1 - 2L bottles, and add

1gram of BugBud powder
.8gram of Carboload
Sensi Bloom A - 10ml
Sensi Bloom B - 10 ml
B-52 - 7ml
Sensizym - 12ml

I mix 2 - 2l bottles all togather, and feed the plants 4L of water each watering cycle, when I come home at night and check on them they are pretty dry, the temp stays arounds 80 during the day (when the light is on) and drops down to 70 at night.

Mind you I am doing this in my closet, and space is limited. I also have an A/C that is running in my room, but the closet is well blocked off, and insluated well.

Any suggestions on my watering methods ? I know it is an aggressive watering cycle, but I got this chart from Advanced Nutrients but it doesnt tell me if I should use all this stuff everyday, or if I am doing this right by going some days of just plain water.

Or should I start adding nutirents every day ? Please let me know what I should be doing. They are looking very nice, the buds are very well! Smells awsome!

I don't know if I am reading you correctly....Are you watering every day?

i believe he is watering every day just doing nutes every 3rd day, are you using tap water ? if so are you adjusting the ph so the plants are able to take in the nutes? as well as evaporating the chlorine off? what size containers/pots ? is rootbound a possibility?

I am watering every day just doing nutes every 3rd day! The ph level on the tap water is at 7.0 I have not been adjusting it. Just using plain old tap water. I have the plants in 3L Pails, I was going to put them into 5L pails but I figured moving them this late in the flowering stage would do more harm then good. ?!?!?!

Well, I would suggest you are watering them too much. I would also get the PH down.

I keep my flowering plants in either 3,4 or 5 gallon buckets. I water (just plain old water) until water starts coming out the drain holes and then I don't water again until the soil is completely dry. At least dry up to my second knuckle when I push a finger into the soil. Usually every 5 or 7 days.

I use a water, water, feed schedule myself, but since my plants don't need or want to be watered everyday, I only feed maybe once a month.
