Great news brother @LegsMahoney! The power of SIPs compels you! I use my sprayer on vegging plants and once plants take root in sips, I start a twice a week top watering routine.

I would say yes, for your first amend use a 1/4 of that recipe.

What percentage of volume are you watering when they’re drinking from the red? Like 5% you think? Or you just feeling it out?

In an EB I would water in like 1/2 gallon twice a week, but only after they are drinking from the resevoir. Keeps the top moist and I’m able to add in some goodies.

Interesting you do it this way. Build a soil suggests to let the reservoir dry out a day when top watering to keep it from going anerobic. Not saying any way is wrong. Just pointing out you can do either it appears @LegsMahoney

@anon74731205 I don’t think BAS dude is using LABS or EM-1in the reservoir. I think that’s a big factor to take into consideration. I always keep the reservoir topped off and topwater twice a week after plants are established. Shit is moist! I took this from the EB website: “Your plants are smart. They know what they need and how much to drink. They’ll help themselves to the water provided whenever they need it, which is why the reservoir should always have water available. Just as you can’t overwater with the EarthBox® gardening system, plants will only take what is necessary.”

You bring up a good point. I just amended the EB’s I’ll let you know how they do . I should get some oyster as well as I don’t usually use it.

You can find Oyster Shell at feed and seed stores. Not sure if you can find the flour, but many carry the pellets that take some manual labor to break down to flour consistency.

Truth be told, I’m in a very urban area. I don’t have any feed stores near me, but I have great hydro shops hence why I use down to earth stuff.

I’m about to cut my metal haze down tonight because I couldn’t keep it under the lights. And it’s shading out my kosher tangie and will probably take months more to finish so its getting the axe.
Don’t underestimate the power of the SIP!

Metal Haze on the left. This is the 8ft gorilla tent too. I underestimated the haze in an Earthbox. I have since culled the jolly green giant for disorderly conduct.

It was around 7 weeks. @Magrowers
@BeagleZ I super cropped it so many times already. Some branches 5-7 times. Tried to keep it under control but it did not want to stop stretching. It started negatively affecting my humidity and shading out my other plants. I had to use the chainsaw to get her down. Also the buds looked like they were 2 weeks in with zero trics.
