How much water needed? Male
Default How much water needed?

I am experimenting to one of my phals and moved it to LECA in a regular transparent plastic pot with holes in the bottom. My phals is growing outside with enough light and good air circulation. It's been 3 days since I made the transferring and there is still the condensation in the plastic pot (3 days after my first watering). Does it mean I should not water the plant since there is some moisture in the pot?

Also, I noticed the the top of the LECA is dry but almost 3/4 parts of it has some moisture..I heard that in LECA you can't over water but I'm afraid continues moisture in the Phal roots will also cause rot that's why I was thinking to wait until the LECA is close to dryness before my next watering..

Your opinions and suggestions are highly appreciated.
