First grow!

Hi everyone! MMJ user here, with my first grow. I thought I'd post pictures and solicit any advice from more experienced growers?

All three ladies were grown in soil and outdoors, I bring them inside at night at this point in the season. In every other feed I've been using fox farm big bloom throughout, added grow big during veg, and currently adding Element Nutrient's Flower Fuel and Humboldt's Secret Sweet and Sticky. Once a week, I'll add cal mag. If I've fed these completely wrong, please be kind, the entirety of my growing knowledge comes from reading internet forums like these.

Plant 1: Sherbet Cookies, a clone given to me by a friend. Thinking I'm going to start flush tonight, based on trichome color?

Plant 2: Pez, grown from a seed from growers choice. This one is VERY sticky and I was so worried about bud rot, I've been using these fancy plastic toothpicks to kind of nudge the buds apart a bit, which looks like has helped with airflow. She should be down flowering in another month, based on her 60 day flowering time. Trichomes still mostly clear. I think. I'll be honest it's kind of hard to tell the difference.

Plant number 3: White widow, also grown from seed. My tall elegant lady. Very very excited to see how this one ends up, the buds started really getting puffy this week. I have no idea what it means but it looks cool. She did everything about ten days later than the Pez plant, so she's got the longest to go. Hairs are juuuust starting to turn brown.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Those were grown outdoors, what size of pot are they in? When did you move these outside?

A couple things (mind you I’ve not used FF nutes for years):

my happy feed was 2 on 1 off, two fert feedings, followed by a ph’d water feed. if I see tips burn I back off my strength but not my schedule.

I treat my Od different than my indoor as far as defoliation goes, I wouldn’t have defoliated nearly as much as you.

Lastly, I understand you are moving these in at night and because of that I’m sure you’re using a smaller pot, that is crippling your yield. Next year if you can manage to find strains that finish mid October you should be able to use 5-10gal pots and not have to worry about moving them indoors. I was just north of Lake Carmel last week and I believe it was getting into the low 50’s or high 40’s with highs around 70 (I think) but I wouldn’t be afraid to leave my girls out in that weather.

Hi Grojack,
They're in 5 gallon fabric grow bags. I moved them outside in May. Moving them inside is more of a security measure than a plant care one - there have been a rash of people stealing plants from people's yards. The buddy who gave me the clone had someone come in his yard and chop his plant - a month two early - and take it.

Thanks for the advice!
