Hello , my Blueberry Diesel are 3 weeks into flower and seem to be doing ok but have not stretched very much.
This is my first grow so I am not sure what to expect. They are under 260 watts actual draw 35"x 14 " LED panel.
Are they on track ?

Looking good for 3 weeks into flower, a little nute burn on some of the leaf tips, but that means you found the upper limit of what to feed.
Don't expect them to follow the breeder flowering Times, it's almost never as fast as stated.

Yeah, those girls are a little small. Maybe you flipped too early.

You will get some good nugs off of them and now you have a goal to beat!

I'm using AN 3 part and have only fed 1/3 recommended and flush 10% and i have had burned tips for the last month or more . I am not sure what to do ?

The tallest of the 2 is only about 32" from the soil , i have removed a lot of leaves. I was thinking it is because it's Indica dominant strain ?
I vegged them for 3 months.

I don't want to say it's not genetics because it always could be.

With that said, I don't think I've ever seen a cultivar that small except for ones that have been severely stunted during its growth.

Given that this is your first grow I am leaning towards the latter. Don't worry though - I had to throw away my entire first grow so you already have me beat!

What medium do have the ladies in?

They look good to me, I would lollipop them and do a little tucking here and there. How close is the light? What size pot and have you used Epsom salt? And what soil

Don't feed any stronger than you have been, no need to flush unless you have a problem. I think the pot size (soil right?) may be the limiting factor if you vegged for 3 months, if you had double the pot size I would expect double the plant size.

This plant was vegged for 3 months in a 23 Gallon pot (not intentionally, the old guy thought they were auto seeds, and it's on day 2 of 12/12):

I have been trimming and bending quite a bit , they are in 3 gal grow bags . HP with perlite & worm castings . Feeding AN 3 part and big bud. The light is around 24" from tops.

I started with 8 plants , 6 turned out to be males. The tent was very crowded with 8 x 3 gallon pots. Next grow with the clones i have I may only start with 2 plants and 5 or 7 gal pots.

That’s a little early for the big bud and you can get the light closer bout 18 to 20 inches

they are in a 2x4x7 tent the company claims its good for a 4x4 lol 3000W equivalent 260 w actual. Hoping it's enough for 2 plants
That is enough , I run a 4×4 and need 5-600 actual watts to grow 4-6 plants. Definitely bring that light a little closer. If you don't have a lumen meter bring it down to 18" above your girls, look for turning leaves and discoloration, its a sign of it being to close. If that doesn't happen try closer , if it shows those signs then you know your height limit. I recommend a lumen meter. Takes the guess work out of it as your plants need at least 40 k lumens to thrive.
