Thank you, Redeye for stopping in. The wife agrees totally that if I lopped anything off it would then not be natural. "I told you!" she says. You now have a new fan, at least here in my humble abode. She went on to call me a "Dirty stormtrooper, always out there doing evil deeds to plants and whatever else you can get your mitts on to lop off."

Man!! That is a funny post!! Natural childbirth

Certainly looks like they are preflowering to me!! Hard to tell without closeups though. Once the plants get around day 30, i like to water fully to a bit of runoff, and then et them dry out to the point of early droops, and then repeat.

They are looking good!! They would likely be into a heavier feed by this point as well. I would increase the MC base nutes to 2grams per gallon. Anytime you are increasing nute strength, keep an eye out for the leaves darkening.

Bottom fans...that is up to you...it wont hurt them, and sometimes i chop them off, but usually i leave them on.

can you roll or fold down the top of the pot ? guessing the pot is bigger than 6L,if so then i think you could give them a bigger drink.though a lil droop is natural at lights off,they can take a bit to wake up in the mornings to im an untidy waterer and my bottom leaves dont take long to go all manky,could cut em off if they bother you.
overwatering is easier and more harmfull early in life.a half/3/4 grown plant is a lot harder to overwater.
edit... waht i man is you can overwater a seedling once and it could take 10 days to dry out.a larger plant youd need to overwater 2,3 times in nearly as many days for same effect.

on the whole looking good

Thanks, Archie. I was actually thinking about rolling them down last night so, that will be my first option. As the wife has ruled out any kind of mutilation at least with our first girls. Who am I kidding, it'll end up being with any of them. Once I explain the LST of tying down to her I might have a winner in upcoming grows as she is a huge Fifty Shades fan, after all.

Mate if she had a look at my grow she wouldn't like too much I've just had a go at super cropping ( and its a hard thing to do for the first time trust me ) and my missus started abusing me for doing it. but a week later I'm glad i did and can see a lot of benefits to it already so good luck mate but i would do some light Lst on one and leave the other so you get an understanding of it all and you will see first hand and you sorry (The wife) can make there mine up

Right on, Skell. I appreciate the advice. All Heather has to take pictures with atm is the phone. She is a hell of a photographer she even studied at Okaloosa Community in their film and photography course, sadly a few years back her gear was lifted in a car break-in and she lost everything. Insurance red-taped her to death until she ended up with less than 30% in recovery costs. She would absolutely kill for anything with a macro setting. I'm working on it! I just need to find that deal!

I could only imagine, about the missus. Mine is an angel until you look at her dog funny or touch the girls with anything but food, water or a tape measure and then all of a sudden she thinks she is Ronda Rousey... (Pre loss Rousey, of course.)

As far as Supercropping... I'll save money for a plane ticket and have @912GreenSkell flew in for that. I like my ass when it's not getting whipped on.

I have been feeding them from a 1-liter bottle using @Greenleaf Nutrients feeding instructions per the one-liter reservoir. Please, tell me I haven't goofed this up since day one? So if I go to the gallon for two plants in a 3gal. pot that is probably more like 2.5 gal. or less of soil then use your slight run-off method I should be as groovy as a Sly and The Family Stoned Bass Line?

If you are using the schedule then stick with it, assuming the leaves look nice and green.

The camera i have takes solid macro pics and is cheap on ebay...$50 of less will get you a canon sd790 IS (digital macro) It also light balances well to cut out the colour of the lights.
