Ahoy There,
We are fixing to go into week 7 of flower. As a Drought gardener, this will be the time I need to address droughting in SIP. The goal of droughting cannabis is to allow the plant to undergo the abiotic stress of an extended drought to the point where the cultivar wilts as the turgid posture is almost lost, and
the GRN directs the plant to have all plant resources available to the DNA encoded "Species Survival Response". The survival response during drought involves the overproduction of essential oils used as a defense against the seeds dehydrating and dying. The GRN will direct the coating of the florescence, thus encapsulating the seed stock in oil.
The containers I am running are rectangular SIP with just over two gallons reservoir capacity. The drought will begin with a full reservoir and saturated root zone mounds. The normal eleven-day drought target has not been elucidated in a SIP container and remains unknown. We anticipate going about half that time as we will still target 50% change in LWA to be the rescue point in active flower plants.
Be really cool if this works. I love SIPPING, but I am a droughter for life
