Thanks Shed. And yes, each one is bigger than the last so far. Violet is definitely the biggest so far, and is drinking the most too.Pinky's on the move (sounds like a movie title!).
And Violet is really getting massive. Are each of your successive plants bigger than the last?
For a one or two person grow it's an economical way to stay in medicine.
They tend to stick around when they're locked in a tent, too
BTW I have little ladybug houses in each tent now, with a little water and food 
Hi Carmen, so far so good! I use CarHooks, like a lot of other growers around here. I top above the 4th node and train all of the shoots to the outside. When they get to the outside of the bucket I switch the carhooks out for binder clips and garden wire.
Looks great and nice before and after pic.The Vivosun Auto Oasis

Pinky (Herbies Seeds Bubblegum Auto)
Date: 9/11/23 Day# 6
Medium: 4" pot with FFHF & Dynomyco
Nutrients: N/A
Pinky has gotten two 30ml waterings around the edge of the pot, but that's it. She's due for a full watering in a day or two, if she starts drinking a bit more.
For now she's still hanging out at around 15DLI. I had to put her on a slightly taller bucket as I move the light up for Violet. She still looks good at 6 days, though, and she's growing steady. Today you can see her second node coming out.
Violet (Herbies Seeds Grandaddy Purple Auto)
Date: 9/11/23 Day# 50, Flower day# 6
Medium: 5G SIP Bucket with FFHF & Dynomyco
Nutrients: Remo Nutrients
I'm still feeding Violet her Remo 10-4 mix twice every day. It's amazing how much she drinks, she's definitely in high gear! I haven't done any training lately, just a few wires on the outside buds remain. I cleaned up the bottom again this morning, removing more suckers and then cleaning up the inside middle. I'll turn her around and do the other side tomorrow.
She's up to 30" wide and 25" tall now and is really just starting her stretch. Right now I can't find a blemish on her. There will be no water breaks this time, she's on the Remo 10-4 mix as long as she's happy. I'm moving the AeroLights up to keep her at 40-45DLI. It looks like Violet still has a lot of stretch in her, I just hope she doesn't outgrow the Vivosun Auto Oasis!

I do, as that would be a sight to see!
That's what I'm doing too but I feel as if I am stunting the stretch. I don't get much vertical growth. My buds are not big either. I'm looking forward to following the life of Pinky, which is the same growth stage as my Red Russians. I hope to learn a thing or two.
Thanks Keith. I can't believe she needed another cleanup, but over 6 weeks of veg will do that.Looks great and nice before and after pic.
Well, I guess it's always better to see someone else outgrow their tentI do, as that would be a sight to see!
She's already getting hard to turn around in there at over 30" wide now. Pinky is going to have to fight for some space.
I used to worry about stunting them with LST but it doesn't seem to matter. For me the keys are:
Well thank you Trala, isn't that specialGood morning cool hand Luke
I’ve awoken rhyming!
Roses are red
Violet does glitter
I ate curry last night
So I’m off to the shitter
I can rhyme too...
Thank you LKA. This is good grow wisdom! Having a controlled environment really does help, and then applying the skillz to achieving the right balance is the key. It looks as if you have achieved the winning formula in your garden though. SIPs seem pretty successful at growing giant plants.
At 27" tall and only on her 8th day of flower, she still has a lot more stretching to do.
