Below you will find a downloadable PDF with information on how to use water responsibly when growing marijuana.

Here are a few of the tips:

	The average marijuana plant needs about 3-6 gallons of water per day, depending on its size and whether it is grown inside or outside.
	To avoid nutrient build up in containers, water until 10 to 20% of total water has drained off.
	Soil should be allowed to dry out slightly between feeding/watering times.
	Never allow the soil to become too wet or too dry.
	Over watering is a mistake many new growers make; roots need to dry out in order to obtain oxygen.
