    Hey. I just wondering how many times do I need to water my plants in one day? Can I just do it once a day?
    And another dumb question... Can I make a clone of a clone? As in not really having a motherplant? Thanks ;)

    Water your plants when they're dry. Plants go through cycles and sometimes need more/less water, so just monitor them. I like to water all plants when they just start to look thirsty; its better to slightly under water than keep them soggy and create root rot.

    So, with small pots and/or young plants, I'd check 2x a day because they can get fried pretty fast, especially with HID. For larger plants, check daily, but they probably only need water every other day or so.

    Stick your finger a couple inches into the soil, if its dry, water. ALso, make sure to water until it runs out the holes, otherwise, you're only watering the top soil and the roots won't grow into the whole space.

    And another dumb question... Can I make a clone of a clone? As in not really having a motherplant? Thanks

    Yes, but the best way to get consistent genetics is with a mother. Sometimes, you can get some funky variation with cloning clones. Its like taking copies of copies, eventually, it'll get fuzzy. Also, take clones before going to 12/12 unless you want to wait for them to revert to veg.
