You grow better than you punctuate. TIP? Add a comma or something! That was very difficult to read.
 
ok thought i would share some pic's
as there was not alot to say about the veg, i think it was a mistake to have 2 sizes of plant lol as the small one's didn't catch up, i have switched to 12/12 about 3 day's ago, the larger one's are about 3ft tall and the small one's about 18" or so,
useing 2 400 hps at 2 levels, but thay seem to be doing ok, the stalks on the larger plants are about 2.5" thick
what do you think?

Nice set up. What strain? or did i miss that?
 
thay are blue dragon, on my next grow i am going to use 2, 8 pot systems so thay will have more room, and try 2 differant nutes, to see whitch is the best
 
ok 6.5 weeks in now,
not sure when to start flushing as i dont have a finish date? all the heads are still clear.
what do you think.

I would definately flush (with FloraKleen) for a full day. Set it to flood about 10 times during that day. Then go back to nutes with the ripen recipe. You're close to the end, but far enough away that any nute lock-out now will fuck it all up.
