Hey guys! Yeah the topping looks very good I am impressed to see how it turned out. That second picture is blueberry gum and has always looked like that from the start, I don't know why. When do you think I should flip them to flower? The tent again is 6'7 tall but obviously I need to leave room for the gigantic hood.. Thanks guys

Flip them soon. If he waited until 2 foot then he would have to transplant again. He is only running 3 gallon smartpots. They would go root bound.Flip me now fuck it
Just kiddin', let them get about a foot and a half to two then flip em. IMO anyways

Looking at your pics, I would say the plants look a bit under watered, as the raised edges on the leaves are good indication of that (providing temps are ok). The #2 pic to me looks more like the start of a lack of Nitrogen or heat stress than overfeeding. I would also have moved the light closer to the plants providing you can keep temps in check, as your internode spacings seems a bit stretched out. If it was me I would continue with your veg nutes, increasing the dose a bit as they could be a bit darker green in color. I would not let them get much more then a foot tall as 6 plants in your tent will cause over crowding if you let them get much bigger. I like to use my MH bulb for the first 7-10 days of 12/12 then go to your HPS this will help the plants from stretching to much. I would also keep them on Veg nutes until the flowers begin forming, then start useing your bloom nutes, MJ needs a decent amount of Nitrogen while it goes through the stretching phase, if you cut back on the "N" to early your fan leaves will yellow and die well before they should. Other than those few issue they look great.
Good luck and enjoy the grow: Stlmatt
here are a couple of pic of my Sterling Haze(3) and Blackberry(1) these ladies are almost 4 weeks into flowering. I started the 12/12 when they were 12-14" tall and you can see I really dont have anymore room for more plants. They are in a 4'x4'x6.5' tent as well running a 600w light with a 150w CFL for some extra side lighting. Notice how green they are and no signs of any fan leaves yellowing or dieing off

My bulb is actually a hybrid bulb that is MH/HPS at the same time. They did get a little stretchy and heat stressed a while ago due to some heat issues that are all taken care of now. Temps are on average 76. Never higher then 80 and sometimes as low as 73. They are just about ready for some water so I will kick nutes up to half strength this go 'round. I was planning on about 12" so pretty soon by the looks of it.

Man everyone is telling me to! The other day I pulled down one of my plants to see how it would go and it was surprisingly easy. I have really put some thought into it and was thinking about trying it on one and see how it all works.

I just topped the girls not too long ago, should I really be taking a node off at this point?
