How is my first grow looking?

This is my first grow ever, but I researched, researched, and researched for about a month before I started this grow. These are being grown in a state I just received my medical marijuana card to grow legally. I will have pics at the end of this post. Here is my setup, which is being done in my spare bathtub with no mylar or reflective material.
  • 1000 watt air cooled MH/HPS
  • 435CFM hurricane inline fan
  • Phresh Carbon Filter
  • Four 5gallon smart pots
  • Fox farm ocean forest soil
  • 4 OG Kush seeds from ILGM
  • Fox Farm Big Bloom, Tiger Bloom, and Grow Big
  • General Hydroponics PH up & PH down
  • Azamax
  • TDS EZ ppm meter
They sprouted from the soil around May 21st (give or take a day). I didn't start feeding them any nutrients until around day 25-30 from sprout, which I fed 1/3 strength and slowly added more nutrients every other water. Started the first water with around 400ppm of nutrients and went up to 600, 800, etc... Every other watering. I vegged at 24 hours a day for the first 14 days, then switched to 18/6 on day 15 to finish out veg. On day 36 from sprout, I switched to flowering, where they were all between 13-15inches tall. A week and a half into flowering, I trimmed off a bunch of the lower canopy. They are now 25 days into flowering and are 24-25 inches tall with about 12 to13 good tops each. The temperatures get no higher than 80 during the day, and at night time around 65 (give or take 2-3 degrees). Humidity is fluctuating between 40-60%. The hurricane fan only blows filtered air out outside the house, where I don't have an intake fan, just what enters the room when the A/C is on, or bathroom door. There is a fan however blowing just over the top of the plants to displace the air around the plants. I am really hoping for 16 ounces (.45grams/watt), but would be happy with anything over 10 ounces (.28grams/watt). What are some of your guys' thoughts on what you think I might yield? Here are 10 photos below from sprout to day 25 of flower.

Welcome to RIU

Looks good man, seems like you know what you are doing. Keep it up

I know it's tempting to ask how much you think you'll yield, but A lot of noobs get grilled for asking that very question. Just take care of your ladies and don't over love them, and at the end they'll definitely take care of you yield wise. Anyways just my 2 cents

Thanks 714steadyeddie, Im already too in love with them. Lol I have been taking care of them nicely, but yes, I am very anxious to see them done. Ill keep you posted on the yield when I harvest. What percentage amber/cloudy would be best on these OG Kush for a more body high than head high?
