Indoor Easy ryder(tips, suggestions?)

[shimmz22]

Hey all,
im currently growing 6 easy ryders, 1 60 day wonder by dna genetics, and 1 blue himalaya diesel from SS seeds. Anyway, im day 24 into the grow. My medium is OF soil mixed with Light warrior in 3 gallon pots. I'm using a 250w HPS and 150 w hps and 2 T8 shop lights. When i first planted my seeds into the 3 gallon pots i didnt saturate the soil which made the leaves kind of burn, but as you can see they look a lot better. My main question is, i've grown this strain twice before and this time around these plants seem a lot smaller(a little bigger than 6 inches). Anyone think so? I'm just afraid the growth may have slown down or something? I watered the pots about a week ago with about 1600+ ml water until the water came out the bottom and havent watered since. The pots still feel heavy today and tomorrow is day 8 of me not watering. Is that normal? Here are some pics. Any help would be appreciated and repped.

p.s. the two smaller ones are 4 days behind the other ones

They look good to me, right about where the should be for their age. Most of that water weight is probably at the bottom of the pots, where the roots are probably just reaching. It takes a while for a small plant in a big pot for the roots to fill out the whole pot. Once they do, you'll be feeding them more often. If they don't feel too heavy, I don't see any harm in giving them a feeding.

I'm with Muddy on this one...they appear fine at 24 days...actually very good for the lights to be spread out as they appear in one of the pics....if ya have any question about ya watering, a simple moisture meter from walmart or lowes does a good job at helping ya with patience....it's my belief that they can handle a drought much better than a flood...with OF, overwatering will burn .... With several plants of the same type and health, perhaps try different things ...
Green karma for ya grow...it's looking good!
