They look like they haven't even started to flower yet, or maybe they have just finished their stretch to start flower? Anyways I think you maybe mistaken with how the 60 day thing works, They will finish around 60 days after your first signs of preflowers, not 60 days after you have planted them. Be patient on chopping them, they gain all their weight in the last few weeks

It's kinda hard to tell what they look like, they seem to be elusive plants, trying to evade the camera LOL
Care to give any details on eat/drink habits, temp, soil, anything ?
Also it looks like just a box enclosed by a silver tarp. not a greenhouse, with only the top open. If that is the case, the tarp is keeping out a lot of good light, and the majority of your light given to them would only be from 10-2, when sun is directly overhead.
HINT: change the date stamp on your camera, it makes it look like you took those pics 3 years ago, and is misleading.

OK, sorry, I haven't seen your other threads.
That tarp is really robbing you of useful light. indirect is better than nothing, but they like direct much better.
More light, they will fill in better, and give better harvest. Also, with some breeze occasionally, will help strengthen the stems.
Is it possible for you to take down one side (whichever is facing the sun, and follow it throughout the day, and just use the tarp at night for protection against the weather? Or is it for visibility purposes to others?

Definitely feed them as soon as possible. Go with a veg feed because they are going to be needing all three of the main plant food ingredients NPK as well as trace elements of the others. I'm assuming you don't use a PH meter, which is okay but it might not hurt to add a little bit of dolomite lime if you have it, if not okay as well. You don't want to dump a lot of money into a small grow, at this point in the game. All and all they look not all that bad considering you haven't fed yet or anything. I personally believe less is more in this hobby, they lived in the natural wild for millions of years with out fertilizer and etc so don't sweat it to much, though if you are going to buy a fertilizer get a good 20 20 20 and you can probably get away with that till it's done. Though blooming fertilizers are big help as well. Good luck and also don't worry about them finishing once that stain start's flowering it goes fast, 4 weeks with that is like 6 weeks with your average hybrid strain.
