6 plants, skunk #1 cross weird sativa

This is my second grow using my budget setup. I'm using a 400w son t agro light. I've decided to grow using a soil and clayball mixture rather than hydroponic. My first grow in this setup was a recycle system using hydroton balls. I only grew 2 plants then. But they were massive. I had a skunk#1 and some other random plant that was from bagseed. Unfortunately the skunk went male and pollinated the other giving me a bunch of seeds from which I've grown this second lot.

I've been using different types of fertilisers the whole time. I've fed them hydro grow and bloom for each cycle as well as feeding them granulated NPK blue and Sulphate of potash. So far the results are really good. I'm over half way through the flowering cycle and my buds are all sticky and crystally already. However the plants themselves look like rope hemp with fat skunk leaves.

Look at the pics. Never seen plants like this before. Can't tell how much longer they need. Can anyone assist?

Advice Anybody?

They seem to be streeched alot how far do u keep ya light away ?

Do u have a fan blowing on them stems seem to be rather weak

Anthoer thing i noticed your pots are rather small Might be worth looking into some larger ones for next grow
Also you should look into the toping guides on this forum can be very effective in increasing your yeilds
Dont mean to pick on your ladies i hope they turn out great im sure they will still smoke up great no matter how much you get

Yeah I figured I may have had the light too high during the vege stage. As for the pot I have them that size so they dont outgrow my cupboard. I had 2 plants before in big pots and I ran outta room so i thought i would try smaller one. Yeah i should've cropped them. How long do you reckon til they'll be fat enough to chop? I'm guessing 2 -3 weeks

I agree you could have had the light closer but to be honest i think the genetics on the plant isnt so good...so maybe some more stabilizing with your unknown strain will give you the buds your looking for....As you look at the calayax should be fatter no matter bagseed or elite seeds. they should be more so a pot plant. deff try some other seeds you got there with the same pots and the light a little closer make adjustments to cool the light if needed then see how they grow.
