Hey guys thanks for reading this, I'm a first time grower but I did plenty of research before I started. Realizing this is not the same as experience I'd love any input anyone would like to throw at me. The details:
cloned jan 1st
flipped to flower on feb 1st
2 1000w hps bulbs in dual hood (started first 30 days w one mh one hps and plan to use one mh during last two weeks) the hood is cooled w a 5 ton ac unit meant for a large home. Closet is 6x4 also has a one ton unit that cools the room. I have two exhaust fans hanging on opposite sides of the closet. On top of the hood I have two one gallon jugs of yeast and sugar water to generate co2 this is rigged to the fan that blows between the light and top of plants. Humidity is between 10-20% temp kept between 68-80(directly below light) at all times. 12 ladies total and 25 ladybugs to keep any pests away. I used super soil and water with molasses water and superthrive every 2-3 days as the ladies tell me. How do they look and how long do they look like they have left if you can tell? Thx
 
superthrive in flower will eff things up big time. it should only be used on transplanted plants, If at all. I have never liked that product.
Well this confuses me, I've used it in every feeding as many growers (of all sorts) swear by it no matter when the watering. I will try to go without it for the rest of the grow but I add 2 drops to a 5 gallon mix of molasses and ro water. It's my first flower so I have zero to compare it with but may try a side by side test next flower and journal it thx

Nope. Flipping on feb 1st means they didnt probly have the first top untill like feb 10 or so and that means your closer to 6 weeks anyways.

I say veg them longer and top them a few times. Do whatever training is needed
to keep within your height restrictions.

I have some indica doms that dont do much if you dont veg them long enough.
A few extra weeks is a big difference

If you would read this study I posted earlier, you will see that using superthrive in flower will reduce crown growth. here it is again.

He is using 2 drops in 5 gallons of water, I highly doubt the ST is have an effect on his plants.

Super thrive in flower is not recommended, unless your plants look sickly, the Super Thrive can work miracles!

My wife was in the Hospital for 3 weeks, so my plants suffered because of this. I was only able to make it home maybe once a week. After the first week, the girls (1 week in flower) looked like shit. Very pale and wilted. I figured a good nitrogen enriched watering would fix them. I came back 5-6 days later, and they looked much worse. I basically gave up hope, and planned to startover when wifey got out of hospital. I figured, screw it, and put 2 cap-fulls of Super Thrive into 2 gallons of water and fed them. Came home 6 days later and the girls looked beautiful!
