Okay, so both Bengay and Condom were left underwatered for a day since I wasn't able to tend to them yesterday, not wanting to ask my sister to water them because of what happened last time. 
But they seem to be doing fine after about 20 minutes post-watering.
I pruned Bengay a bit of those kind of burned leaves from that one incident, so she does look a little skimpy, but I assure you, it won't harm her a bit!
Both of their tops seem to be growing pretty nicely as well.
Both Bengay and Condom are still being fed 3 tsp/g of Fox Farms Grow Big, with a foliar feeding once week of 10 ml/g of Dyna Gro Protekt.
Aflac has been given her first feeding of 1 tsp/g of Fox Farms Grow Big.
All under a total of ~250w of 5000k/6500k CFL at a 1:2 ratio.
Now for the pictures:

Aflac lookin a lot better now.
I guess it's just the lights, but some of the pics really look like a lot of N, and others look normal.

Naw, the pics are fine, I thought it was just the lighting.
You don't need new camera, just remind people like me that forget and ask if they're getting too much N.

Alright, well it seems like a good time for an update on my girls!
It seems like I have some N deficiency goin' on with Condom!
And Bengay is starting to show a little of it as well, so I decided that it's time to up the nutes a bit more on those girls. I'm feeding Bengay and Condom now with 3 1/2 tsp of Fox Farm Grow Big per gallon of water and foliar feeding with 15 ml per gallon of Dyna Gro Protekt.
Bengay looks kind of weird due to all of the burning early on in her life and a little skimpy on the foliage, but that's due to the fact that I pruned her quite a bit since the last update to see the effects of it.
The topping seems to be paying off now as well! I think in about another week I'll be LST'ing Bengay and letting Condom do its thing with the 4 tops, to have a side by side comparison of which technique will have a better outcome.
For Aflac, I've decided that I'll be supercropping her when she reaches about 8-12" tall, so that's another technique that I'll be comparing with the two above as well.
Aflac is currently getting 1 tsp of Fox Farm Grow Big per gallon of water, and she seems pretty happy if I might say so myself!

I know man! I was kind of surprised myself! I started feeding a heavier dose of dyna gro protekt though, and it does make the stems a whole lot stronger.

It's update time!
Condom seems to be doing a whole lot of stretching lately, which I'm very happy to see. Bengay is also doing a lot better than before, which is a huge relief for me.
The ladies' tops seem to be growing at a much more rapid pace than before as well.
Also, both of the girls have showed signs of sex!
I'm continuing the same feeding regimen on all three of my girls since the last update, so no change there.
Aflac seems to be growing a whole lot faster than Condom and Bengay have, so maybe the mutation was a good thing!
Here's the pics.
Condom (7.5" tall/12.5" wide):

[HR][/HR]Bengay (6" tall/ 8" wide) Trimming played a role on why she's not as wide as she was:

Condom is doing good man.
By the time mine was 12" wide, she was 10" tall, because I still only had veg lights on her.

Yeah man, I'm really happy with the way Condom and Aflac are doing. But I can't really say the same for Bengay...
I only have veg lights on her too!

I'm glad Aflac is doing as well as she is, after the rough start, I thought your first two would have her dwarfed by now.

Yeah, I thought so too, but it looks like Aflac might even catch up!
