One thing to keep in mind with 2 gallon pots is you don't have a lot of time to mess around with supercropping like you did last time, because while it slows down the top growth, the roots are still filling out the pot. You could end up with fewer tops and rootbound plants.

Well I definitely don't want that!! So I guess just simple tie downs will be sufficient.. .
 
Sour G is a pretty balanced hybrid.
 
Good evening all...

how often do you water them like that?

I water when they feel light. Might take longer than expected at 80% with the tent closed.

Yeah I agree I'll check on them before I go to work in the morning because I'll say one thing with the light being on 24/7 they're going to dry out a lot quicker
 
I can honestly say I've never done a grow with 24/7 light except when doing clones. So honestly in a way I guess I can just treat them the same way.

Do you think it's good to water them like you said or you think it would be better to set them out down in the water and let them suck it up. Or will that counteract them reaching the roots up to get to the water?
 
I find bottom-watering too time consuming and it doesn't force oxygen into the soil. I also want to make sure the top roots are watered so I always go from the top. I can't think of an advantage to bottom-watering.
 
Frfr though I just keep thinking about these two gallon pots bro I don't want to be off calculations on this shit so I'm thinking and I like to have your advice on this after transplant into the 2 gallon what would you think would be good for them to have enough room to finish in their pots one week and then start to flip or two weeks after transplant and then start the flip?

I'm sorry to ask so many questions but I can already tell they're going to be such beautiful plants and I don't want to miss nothing up in this girl at all..

Because in all honesty I would hate to get out of stuck point and then had to order more dirt order bigger pots to transplant them in and then it's going to shock them if they're in the budding stage. I know you feel my worries I know you got me and I really appreciate it bro I wish I could share some of it with you

Well I'll say that was really helpful right there and that makes perfect sense. Next on the list as well it's 5 gallon buckets and a aquarium pump and AirStone. Best to keep the water good and fresh temperature stays good enough and keeps it in the good zone here so I ain't got to worry about that.

You're tripping over yourself in a rush to the future! There is no way to know how long to let them veg in the 2 gallon pots before flipping until you get there.

Save the money. There is no need to aerate your water or your nutes for soil. If the water is too cold coming out of the tap you can let it stand in a bucket to warm up, but you absolutely don't need a pump or stone.
