Hi Kathleen! The fact that it's growing is great, keep in mind it usually slows down around day 4 but it will pick back up. And before feeding with flour and water, you'll want to discard all but 1/2 cup (113g) and then you feed that with an equal amount of flour and water, so 113g water and 113g flour. You can use smaller or larger amounts of each, you just want to make sure the ratio of starter:water:flour is equal by weight. Happy baking! Annabelle@KAF
