More roots more zoots...I am a it worried about the soil sitting wet to long and causing root rot at the start so now that I've potted into finals I'm giving more water but not until run off just yet...that sound ok?

IMO I would like to see run off to at least check PH and then let it dry good. Get a feel for your pot when it's dry it will feel like nothing. Then water when needed. Our weed likes wet and dry. If you let it dry the roots will chase the moisture and be bigger and badder and waiting for more. Every once in awhile if I can't get to them when they need it they may look a little droopy but water deep and Bang right back to life.
The day may come when you are like wtf is going on. It will probably be ph lockout. If you have no idea whats going in and what's coming out, you have no idea whats going on. Don't you wanna know whats going on?

I used 5 gal grow bags on my last grow.Now they where folded down alittle so i will say 4 1/2 gallons.The plants seemed to get a little to big, as well as the bill for the soil.I did harvest around 2 lbs from the 32 plants i grew.Now saying that i am gonna drop down to 3 gallons this time.As well as only go with 28 plants.With more room i am hoping to average the same yield or increase by allowing more light to lowers branches.Meanwhile using less soil and saving alittle more green to make more green!
If you are growing indoors then you are interested in per square meter not per plant. You can replace one big plant with nine dwarfs in the same space. Having slightly too small pots is good if you are trying to stop them growing too tall. You don't gain anything by having the canopy higher, you have to move the light. The energy that the plants spent building those long stems could have gone to bud production. The ideal plant would be flat so as to capture the most light at the perfect distance with just the cola sticking up, like the SCROG grows.
If you start drilling holes half way down you get the air-pot effect without the problems of the water running off the sides when you water them.
