276w of CFL's

I ran a thread with my first grow all the way through. Now I'm on my 3rd grow and with multiple improvements. I was having heat issues with my space so I made my own venting system for the top lights which dropped the temps by 6 degrees to 79f while the lights are on. I have also replaced 2 2700k bulbs with 2 3500k bulbs for more of a spectrum. And my biggest problem that I have only corrected recently is, I upgraded to a reverse osmosis system(0-3ppm) from just regular tap water (430ppm). Here are a few pics that are 43 days into flowering.

Here's what I have going on:

30" x 18" x 36 clone/veg cabinet
6 23w CFL's : 4 - 6500k , 2 - 2700k
30" x 18" x 36 flower cabinet
12 23w CFL's : 8 - 2700k , 2 - 3500k , 2 - 6500k
FoxFarm Happy Frog Soil
Botanicare ProBloom + FoxFarm's Beastie Bloomz
Reverse Osmosis Water system

Let me know what you guy's think.

Transplanted all the clones from party cups into 2 gallon square pots. Also bent them all over to start training them. They've all been topped once, so... so far each one has at least 5 main colas, some of them have more. And... I have one runt, it grew funny once it was rooted from cloning it, and just has never caught up. It's growing almost like a banzai tree, kind of cool. Gonna finish it out just for kicks.

As for the other, they are getting close. One of them ( the supposed " OG Kush 'Old Gold' ) is looking like another week maybe two and it's time for flushing. The other three ( the supposed " God's Vagina " ) are a little behind and looking like two to three weeks and then a week of flushing and cut.

I took the clones when I put the the bigger plants into flower. So they are 46 days old and the bigger plants are 46 days into flowering.

Comments/ideas/advice are welcome.

found this little green growth, dunno what it is.... but it's the only one i can find in any of the 4 plants. hope thats not a seed, and if it is i have no idea how the hell it happened.
 
yea i have gone over the 4 plants i have with a 10x magnifying glass..... its the only spot that looks like a seed, and everything else looks normal. i dont see any pollen sacks anywhere. unless they grew up inside the top of the nug where i would have to tear it apart to find out...
 
If thats the case, and they do look like they are almost done, I wouldnt worry about it too much... most likely you had a random male flower pop out, and it pollinated a calyx late in flower, and now it has been grown over already. On the plus side, she looks super frosty
 
i have to slap myself everytime im in there cause im tempted to start eating nugs :) hopefully it will just be the one bean. its 52 days now so they have to be gettin close to done.
 
bagseed.... the one with a bean was from an "OG KUSH Old Gold" and the other 3 are "God's Vagina"
 
so the plant that started showing signs of a hermie has been chopped down. heres some pics.

I've been out for about a month now, and those pics have my mouth watering for a little taste............mmmmmmmmmmmmm.
 
Cut all the nugs off the stalk today and put into a jar. Here's a few pics. Also today i took the little trimmings i had, some stems that were lying around from all the nug ive smoked in the last few days, and about a gram of redhairs and used the iso alcohol method to make hash. worked very well, however ill probably need to do it in the garage next time.:bigjoint:

oh yea and there is a small nug missing..... had to try some. it was pretty smooth already, nice flavor, cloud 9 high and a good body buzz. smells like hay. :)
