Thanks for the tip @NickHardy, I was thinking of leaving them at 50% until the end of the week and then increasing both to 75% and see what happens. My wife and I are planning a week-long vacation from here. Do you think the plants can handle a week with a full tank of water and proper irrigation to last a week without intervention? What do you think @Azimuth @Jon @Bill284 @StoneOtter and whoever else 😉
Depends on the growth period - if you’re going away now then definitely leave them on 50% and let them shuffle along!

If it goes wrong then call it advanced veg stress droughting 😆

But yeah at 50% lights in veg letting the res get low it is believed will encourage root growth - setting you up for flip?

My 2c’s.

Morning Kanno :ciao:
First I hope you have a wonderful trip, be safe my friend. :high-five:
Running a sip isn't my specialty my friend.
Not sure how they will feed while your away.
Turning down the lights before you leave will increase the length of time your nutrients will last.
Slow them down before you go for the best chance of success Amigo. :thumb:
Take care.

Thanks @NickHardy @Bill284 sounds like a reasonable plan so I'll see how long my water supply lasts with the light at 50% and see how I'll have to adjust it accordingly when I leave next week but on the other hand it's only been a week but it'll be over I won't be here for the sixth and entire seventh week, so I still don't know, I'll have to prepare them properly 😉
 
Right before you leave I would water them well from the top slowly until the reservoir is full. They will typically drain the soil water before moving on to the reservoir water which will buy you a few extra days.

Having them go dry a bit just before your return isn't the end of the world either.

Enjoy your trip!
 
And I also wanted to show you my outdoor girl, and it's either a purple queen or a Mimosa EVO, but I'll probably know when it starts blooming.

Indoor and outdoor, very nice Kanno. That symbol looks pretty good under your signature there - congrats again.
 
So, update 2 is from the 150x150 tent with @ViparSpectra KS5000 and four Paradox girls from nuka seeds... To begin with the light is running at 50% power, the girls are halfway through the fifth week in vegetables. Yesterday they each received 3 liters of watering from above with EC 2.1 and 5.5 liters of water in the tank. I will also monitor how long it will last them in the tank. In the training, I continue in the same way as with the hulk, so I gradually spread them to all corners, I also removed the four lower vejira leaves from each plant so that there was some space underneath. So, this is how it looks after today's training of my four girls...

Thanks to everyone for stopping by and if you have any tips or suggestions on what to improve or do differently, I would be more than happy 🖖
Beautiful training job, these girls look happy.

Thanks @StoneOtter, I also think this will be the best way for them to handle it.
It seems you have found a way to solve the water issue. Have a nice trip.
 
Hey guys, so I'm back with an update on my Hulkberry in SIP and it's the second day of the sixth week of veg. Today the reservoir was empty, so I filled it with another 6 liters of water. This is what the hulk looks like before today's training and it's getting monstrous...

Well, now it's time for the Paradox tent, which continues quite similarly, only they are not as monstrous as the hulk, but they also look damn good 😉 otherwise @ViparSpectra KS5000 and XS1500 PRO are still running at 50% at the hulk. So and this is what it looked like before plant training...

Wow big transformation for the hulk! Nice work!
Thanks a lot Valerie, a lot of credit goes to @ViparSpectra XS1500 PRO and KS5000 which do a great job at 50% power 👍
That :love: and you're very talented my friend! You have such good vision to carry out what they need to become the beautiful plants you have in the end! :bravo:

With pleasure. That's their job. And hopefully, they will do a great job at the flowering stage.
 
Hello everyone, last week it seems to me that the girls are growing in front of my eyes, especially Ted Hulkberry, who I think will fill the entire 2.5x2.5 tent in no time or tear it apart, because he already has most of the tent for himself, I don't know what he will do when he switches to flower 😁 what do you think @Jon? You also grew it if I remember correctly 😉

and in the second Paradox tent it grows slowly, the girls grow there so calmly and comfortably and in my opinion they don't lack anything, I keep growing so that I manage to occupy the entire 5x5 tent with these four plants.

My plan is to switch them all to flower at the end of the eighth week. What do you think will last that long when you see the Hulk?
 
It's time to update the tent. Otherwise, the Hulk will tear your tent to pieces. lol
