pH will fluxuate over time, make sure you check them before every water/feed, and i wanna see pics of this "crazy growth" from moving them further away

Those are strong on the indica side, fuck what Nirvana said. There is no denying the blood line. That is a text book Indica!

Other than that they look great. Ill Subb and try to be of any help if I am needed

when I transplant, do I soak them with the feed water (nutes and liquid karma), or just the regular water since i'll be putting some fresh fox farm soil in it?

If ur gonna transplant make sure u wait till the soil is more dry than wet so you don't tear the roots, and squeez all the sides and bottom of the pot to loosed the soil for easy extraction... And as far as using the LK I say use it but it really don't matter, good luck don't tear them roots!

I'm gonna disagree. if the soil is dry it wont stay in a nice shape to transplant. tearing root?? how are you transplanting them that you are worried about tearing roots??

thats fine, you opinion is what makes you, you...and the water weight will make it harder to transplant, a fact not opinion, and if you plant is READY for a transplant then the roots should hold the form of the soil(without the couple extra pounds of water weight that is)....but like alot of thigs involved in growing there are different ways to do things not always a right or wrong, im just tryen to make sure ole josh dont destroy his roots

valid point buuut Im still gonna disagree though. and here's y...Water adds a lubricant to the sides of the pot. thus creating less friction for the roots to slide out easier.

but to each his own.
there are more than one way to skin a cat :D

i did the transplant into the bigger pots, there were a lot of roots so they should have more room to grow now, and i used a shit load of water after so i would get a little drainage at the bottom

You also make a good point about the water making it slide out easier, but that's also why I wanted to make sure that Josh knows u need to squeez the sides Of he pot to loosn up the rootball and stop It from sticking to the sides...either way it good to know there is different thouhgts and ideas for Josh to pick what he thinks sounds right...And at the end of the day we all learn from eachother, after all isn't that what RIU all about?

I tried tucking in the big fan leaves into the plant so the inner nodes get some light, thats why they look a little funky, I will be switching to 12/12 in about 3 days, i'm ready for some budzzzz
