I will increase by 10% on the dimmer once per week. I went a little intense a little too quick, so I am sticking to increasing by 10% per week on the dimmer.
Absolutelyyes, it seems it's very delicate balance. You are a bit ahead so I am learning on your mistakesThank you my friend
very delicate, and you are very welcome. Congrats on the light 
!
VERY VERY VERY VERY NICE!!!!Nikon D7500. Pictures under LED are nightmarish
For some reason I thought this is a 1 thing experiment you were trying. If youve been growing like this for years and you like the results then I understand. If they do stretch less it could be useful, specially for people like me who only top and lollipop. I might need to try it next grow. Sometimes Im in a hurry because I have none left but now that I have 2 tents I dont think that will be a problem. Will still use Hemplex of course, youre from Ireland maybe you can get it too, everyone who has tried it is happy with the results and one of my friends even replaced clonex with hemplex for the clones so it does work. You can use it with any line you like except synthetic lines which you dont use anyway. I highly advice you to give it a try and if youre not happy you dont keep using it but I think you'll be happy. Specially with the foliar applications during veg. For flower I use Alfa Boost cause its cheaper and also has way more things than just hormones. Hemplex can get expensive if you use the watering dosage instead of the foliar dosage.No worries. It's hard to annoy me and my balls are hard as walnuts
I can't really answer your question as I have no comparison, I flower like this for years, just few people I know do- most do sudden 12/12. Is 12/12 faster? Probably. Is there difference in weight? I have no idea. Is stretch slower? Probably
For me fact of giving more daylight to develop and lack of desperate stretch are important.
People have their own way of doing stuff
We don't have unfortunately two tents with same plants that we could check theories on. Maybe in the future
where did he go?
and experimenting experts will start 
in this crazy but rewarding hobby
This is what I was thinking : ) @Sunin is there any “bleaching of the leaves” at this point? Would that even be apparent that soon after light power increase?
CONGRATS YO!!!! Thats awesome! But yeah id be starting that thing on like 2 or 3 percent!then I will hang Phlizon FD9600 1000W instead and crank it up to half
I have no idea if my plan have sense
wish me happy pineapple toasting in case
(J/K’ing)
You are doing great! So are your plants, I can see they are loving it. When you flip to flower they expect more light, and ramping it up slowly is the way
. When I was using HPS double-ended globes all I had to do was raise the light again (about 18-22inches until the back of my hand was cool) before flower, then ramp it all the way up to 750w IMMEDIATELY this would be a jump from a 450w MH globe and my plants had no problem with it. But these LEDs man, they aren't playing around! I can see why SO many people use them now instead of globes. I can also see why people like me get a little carried away with increasing light when we were so used to being able to up the wattage so quickly with globes.
so after levelling up canopy and between sips of water (I fed half litre at the time) I raised light up to 26-24" Took hours, I just sat down and got stoned 
if you're asking, yes
I don’t blame you! I go over to the Humboldt coast and stick my toe in the water and start longing for Huntington Beach! I guess that’s what they make wetsuits for!
Hey Huntington Beach and Newport even Seal beach was my HS summer surf sights. Yes i was a girl boogie boarder my brothers were big time long board surfers. I can hardle stick my feet in the water here on the Oregon coast LOL, tide pools maybeI don’t blame you!

If its only to support then why not, I would go for the elastic one since its less likely to damage tissue and you already did the SCROGing. I tried to SCROG on a second net once and it was the worst idea Ive ever had, second net SCROGed branches ended up on top of the first ones and I only diminished my yield but I think you mean just for support right?No matter how long you grow- if you love it - and you did serious jobs in the garden opening the tent morning after always have a little bit of nervous anticipation
Seems I did decent job (pat on the back)
Girls are pushing nicely and more or less even.
Dent by retarded one is filling up slowly, retarded one is still retarded, now I am just simply interested what she will bring being so weak and weird
Checked all the lollipoped trunks - looks good, few wounds but nothing serious
Lettuce shoot up so whatever I did with her mutilated limbs worked
Now I will introduce mid bloom feed with loads of potash with next water and I will change silicon for more expensive one that I keep for 3rd and 4th week of flower.
Today sun will be cut to 13h and we are entering last and most intensive week of stretch.
I would prefer them to build low, not too fat and very even of course but I know where I can put my wishes
Where's that 1000W?- she said greedy- it would help flatten heads on perimeters

If somebody could advise me and brainstorm with me if it would be better to install second grid stiff like the first one or just elastic net? or maybe none?
Second grid should come right about now, right? Because all the double SCROG tables that I see have second layer after around 30cm
