no offence but shouldnt ur title have been buds outdoor grow 12"... cuz those are nowhere near 6 feet, let alone 12. not tryna knock ur grow i just dont like clickin on a post that advertises 12ft plants and come to find out there about 3 feet. but as for the constructive criticism, i would definitely spend more time in soil preparation and maybe pick a different blend. to me it just looks like the roots arent able to flourish like they should, u should be seeing a lot faster growth. ive planted into straight clay my first year and thats about what my plants looked like. next year i did it right, ammended the shit out of the soil and dug huge holes, plus rototilled everything in between the holes down about a foot. the difference in growth rate wasnt even comparable. i used all the same line of nutes and everythin else, that was the only thing i did different and the changes were drastic. just my two cents. good luck with your grow.
