That's some serious stalks! Wow, I've never got close to that. Did the RO water help with your yellowing/browning spots?
I believe the RO may have helped as my tap water is 450ppm or over, but I also changed my light cycle to 18/6 instead of 24/0 and that seems to have helped as well. I noticed both plants I put outside cleared up pretty quickly, so I changed my indoor light cycle.

topdressed RW 1 and 2
120ml 4-4-4 (8ish TBSP) and EWC

I push the rice hulls to each side as I topdress... gently rub the fertilizer in, cover with EWC and push the rice hulls to the opposite side and repeat.

waited a few days, then put all clones with visible roots into a fresh bag mix, watered and put them below the canopy...

outdoor plants still ok... time for topdress again... maybe Saturday morning.
RW 3 has taken a bit of a beating from my 4 and 6 year olds... 2 broken branches since they topped it, one at the main stalk on bottom and about 12 inches from the main stalk on a top branch. Top branch is healed... jury is still out on the bottom branch...

RW 3 bottom branch broken

I constructed the SIPs last June and they seem to work great. Today is the first time I've tried the float valve and the 3 gal bucket SIP. Pretty simple to build everything.
I used Black Swallow KIS mix in them last run. This time I'm trying out a living soil from Dark Earth Living Soil... see how it goes.
I do top dress. I just move the rice hulls to one side, top dress, then move rice hulls to the other side and top dress again.
Very nice set up you have there. I am also running sip pots. I use 5 gallon buckets with coke cans in the bottom for my reservoir. I manually water mine, I find that watering them every 3rd day seems to work pretty well. How often are you watering yours? My thoughts are that if you keep them really moist they are almost hydroponic in the growth rate.

when I filled them by hand I would try to top them up every third-ish day also.
now, I dump a 5 gallon RO bottle into the reservoir every 3 or 4 days to keep it topped up.
