It's a good idea to check your tap water with a digital pH meter as it will vary depending on your geographical location. If water is too alkaline (pH too high) a few drops of lemon juice or vinegar can be added. To increase pH you can add dolomite lime. In general, cannabis prefers an acidic environment (<7 pH).
==Wet-Dry Cycle ==
When growing in soil, the soil should be left to dry before watering. Allowing the soil to dry causes fresh oxygen to be pulled into the soil when watering and also reduces the chance of root rot.
== Water stakes ==
A form of automatic watering that allows the plant to “drink” water through a straw. Ideal if you need to leave a plant unattended for a few days.
