Update: Day 14 of 12/12. Ladies are still happy and healthy i just hope their stretching slows down soon. I only have about 14" from the top of my reflector to the ceiling and the strawberry diesels are going crazy. I have my light within 28" from the tops of the plants and that is as low as i can get it before the edges of my canopy start to get poor light. Heres a canopy shot and a shot of my Girl Scout Cookie that stands out from the group (it is back left corner of the 1st pic)20150426_095203.jpg20150426_095300.jpg

It's been a while, time for an update.
DAY 24 12/12. Slow onset of flowering but they are still stretching hard and fast at 28-38" tall (Critical Kush stayed short and bushy, Deathstar has moderate stretch, Cheese, Strawberry Diesel and Girl Scout Cookie are all reaching for the sky)
One of my GSC runts that was stunted from the get go was quickly outgrown and started wilting so i decided to remove it to ensure it wouldn't become a source of problems. My room sits at 63-66 degrees F with lights off, 68-73 lights on. RH is around 50% but i recently added a dehumidifier to bring RH down since my temps. are low. I believe I will be getting another 1000w (digital) and use it at 500w for supplemental lighting.

It's day 33 and my room is smelling delicious :weed:.
Smell report
Critical Kush: strong earthy hash with sweet mixed-berry undertones.1431733686472-490616334.jpg
Girl Scout Cookie: hard to describe. piney, lemony, woody, mentholated dark chocolate all very faint

Death Star: my personal favorite so far. Grape flavoured Jolly Rancher is all that comes to mind.

Strawberry Diesel: living up to its name already fuel soaked hash with very faint undertones of fresh picked strawberries.

Cheese smells like musky, almost moldy sweetness and i didn't quite have time to get a pic before my light went off. I did get a group shot as soon as the light went off though

How am I doing?

I'm running 1.7 ec currently i have been slowly increasing ec every res change. I started off day 1 of flower at 1.2 ec. I used equal parts FNG and FNB for the 1st week and used a 3-1 ratio of FNB to FNG the 2nd week (ec ratio not volumetric, FNG is more concentrated than FNB)and only used FNB from week 3 and on.

Day 49. I have recently upgraded to 2x1000w hps as my girls were getting claustrophobic. adding another 1000w raised the max room temperature from 73f to 78f so I hope to see them finish strong the last 2-3 weeks. I accidentally set up a box fan without a timer so one of my Strawberry Diesels got direct wind for 2 days and got wilted leaves all over so i had to defoliate but other than that it has been pretty smooth sailing.

This is my person favorite so far, Deathstar. It's gonna take another few weeks but she should fill out until the end according to whom I got the clones from

Today marks the end of week 8 and there's still not a significant amout of amber trichomes on any of my girls except for the Critical Kush which is somewhere between %5-10 amber so i will be flushing them soon.

I dropped my EC down from 2.0 to 1.0 until it's time to flush and also switched one of my hps to mh to (hopefully) give my girls a little extra resin production for their last leg.

I have discovered one of my plants labeled Cheese was actually not Cheese or, in fact, any of the 5 indentified stains. It smells like Blue Dream and has very narrow-finger leaves and Sativa stretch but very tight very indica bud with almost no hairs.20150606_075952.jpg
Here's a group shot for now. I'll try to get a good picture of each strain uploaded today
