They look fine to me too ... like they are all set to explode ... let them dry out for 4-5 days and then feed them an extremely weak 1/4-1/2 strength veg nutes. My past completed ABM grow was very receptive to organic nutes.

Keep up the good work !!

Thanks for the reply chester..I don't have veg nutes..Just bloom..

The plants look very nice but I've got some concerns about how you are watering them. What size are your pots? They look to be about 3 gallon. 750 ml is less than .2 gallons. A 3 gallon pot would normally require about .75 gallon per watering. Remember you want to give enough water so that about 10% of what you give runs out the bottom of the pots. As nutrients are broken down they create a bi product, which is salt. The extra water that runs out the bottom of the pot helps to flush those salts out of the soil. Should the salts build up in the soil they can inhibit the plants ability to uptake nutrients properly and the plants will suffer. Given the size of your pots, the size of your plants and a proper watering with run off, I wouldn't expect your plants to need water more than every 6-7 days at this point in the grow. .2 gallons in that size pot isn't enough to get water down to the roots at the bottom of the pot.

Day 24>>this is one of the ladies..How does she look to you guys?I up-ed their water yesterday to 750ml(29thOCT) as they dried out after 3 days with just half a liter..

I've not grown in 5 gallon pots but my guess would be about 1.25 - 1.5 gallons. Again, enough that 10% runs out the bottoms.

1.5-2g will produce runoff from a 5g pot assuming the soil is reasonably moist when you pour it in (i.e. not straight out of the bag). If you're using a soil mix, you should really only need to water like 2g every 5-6 days.

Guys,something came up and the girls had to move for 6 days..My friend looked after them and they are 30 days old today..bottom leaves do not look well at all..do not know what my friend has done..I am suspecting he gave them water straight from the tap..What do you guys think?They look like the have grown abit,15.5 cm from 9cm in 6 days..node spacing is about 2.5 cm..Is there something wrong here?something i can fix?

Look like they made it thru OK ... hard to tell about the health of the lower leaves w/ the light on but from what I can see they'll be fine ... just need a little water and some of that good light ... in the last photo the light looks to be about a meter above the tops ... is it ?
