I started lst-ing them with grow clips(will have to try them on my other grows not on autos for now) and ended up snapping the top of the royal gorilla and tapped it up surprisingly enough it wasn't super stressed afterwards and just tied em down with pipe cleaners, re-adjusted them a few things in course of the week. Also added a humidifier as couldn't get humidity past 40, now it stands steady at 60% for now .
Kicked off the reservoir on Wednesday nov. 3rd , had a little spill , stayed with it got em regulated and water is flowing. With the humidity up and reservoir supplied with water they are starting to take off in pre-flower. I gave them their 1st reservoir feeding only added 2 gallons on Saturday nov 6th and gave the rest on Sunday nov 7th. Now Sunday I turned on the submersible pump (don't really know if it should be on 24hrs/day but for now that's what it's on. Will see how they respond. Had bad news happen when I was re-adjusting the pipe cleaners , my light bulb stopped(burned out i guess) glad I was around to catch it. I waited a few minutes as the bulb was freaking hot. Glad I had a replacement handy.
