Day 54, ripening occurring, whoopee

In the home straight now. Day 54 from seed sewn and I have to harvest on day 64 regardless, please don't all scream at me. I'm going to to see my son for the first time in a year so can't and won't cancel or change and have no baby sitter for the girls. Moved them all around in the tent today as some serious leaf bleaching so the two most mature (all sewn at the same time), one of which is ripening very quickly, are at the front.
The least mature GC and the WW at the back where they are least affected by me operating the tent for watering etc to bring them on as much as possible.
The remaining GC is in the middle and seems happy to be there.
They are getting @1L of water per day (terra flores added twice a week) and playgron sugar leaf spray once a week.
I turned the fan and light down yesterday to try and sort temperature and rh out. Temperature is averaging between 27-28c and RH at 50%.
Leaf damage on the most mature girl I believe is from a combination of ph damage, my meter was faulty and so they were getting a whole point more acidic, now got a new one and litmus papers for double checking. The other factor I think was light damage, that's now as high as possible and I've turned it down a bit so is at @80% strength.
Lots of detail I know but not posting as regularly. Let me know if too much.
Btw, thanks for the help with the gnat s, they are no more. Used a combination of stickies and nematodes :d5:

Wanted to add that while away for that week as I can't leave the tent running I had an idea to put the girls that are nowhere near ready in big plastic tubs in some water in the bathroom as it gets the most natural light but has a frosted window so can't be seen. I'll leave the door and window sealed shut re the smell but at least they get a bit more time and I can put them back in the tent when I return if they're not dead, everything crossed. Any thoughts anyone :doh:
 
Water them before you go, and turn the light down, the lower temp will slow evaporation and they will drink less.

They might be a little dry when you return, but I believe they'd recover.

If they don't, you didn't lose anything vs chopping them before you left.
 
Thanks for the advice mate. That's a great idea. I'm worried about leaving things running re electrics and safety. They're on a surge protected ext lead. Would it be safe to leave the fan on as well do you think
 
Thanks, I think you've come up with the best solution. Also I always tell people I'm going two weeks later so by the time they think I'm going I'll be back, as Arnie said. You guys know the truth so shhh.....
