THC Atlas Field Card

Watering & Dryback Field Card

Use this card to evaluate wet-to-dry behavior, container weight, substrate moisture, irrigation timing, and leaf posture before changing feed or watering volume.

Field checklist

Lift or compare container weight before watering.
Check whether the top, middle, and lower root zone are behaving differently.
Record last irrigation time, volume, runoff, and current plant posture.
Separate wilt from heat/VPD stress and root-zone saturation.
Watch whether symptoms improve, worsen, or repeat after watering.

Rule: watering is a root-zone decision, not a fixed calendar habit.

Watering & dryback timeline

I am using the Watering & Dryback Field Card. Container weight is [heavy/light], last watering was [time/volume], moisture is [x], runoff is [x], symptoms are [x], and VPD is [x]. Help decide whether this is overwatering, underwatering, dryback timing, or another root-zone issue.
