Thanks Higher, i managed to nearly poison them with ferts, when i flushed them the water that i flushed out had a EC of 3.8 so i got some new oganic lower strenth ferts & im avoiding feeding them for another month or so yet or the lower leaves begin to yellow whichever comes 1st but ive put them under a dual spec bulb to try & limit stretch & they seem to be loving it
After 2nd night

Was that you that has pre-ferted soil? Flushing pre-ferted soil makes things works cause the time released shit is activated with water so soaking them feeds them more. I take it the yellowing around the edges of the leaves I see in the pics is nute burn?

If you don't have one don't bother, they'll become really visible once flowering kicks in

That bulb looks great to me! Make sure it works with your ballast and I think you should get it in right away

Also - WOW! The symettry your plants are exhibiting this late in the growth cycle is astonishing. How much/where are you getting these feminized seeds? The genetics look very solid!
