moisture meter would be good....you can get them with ph meter together. if you've got a bloom nuit i'd start adding it 1/2 to your next watering....temps are spot on :)

Man there going to double in size at least when you put them in to flower. You might want to change up in to a larger pot too and put some perlite in with your medium to help keep air and water in the medium. This will help loads with the feeding of them. Also get yourself a moisture tester. Cheap as chips from garden centers.

I vegged mine for 5 week and they are now in to week three of flower. Here is a few pic's to compare to.

Also check my thread.

Ive been looking into a moisture meter. Read a bunch of mixed reviews. I will def invest in one. I feed at every other watering inc bloom nutes at half strength already.

Couldnt imagine the size I'd be gettin on these girls. Your pics look great. Should i go 3 gallon? and just fill the remaining space with perlite?

I can work in both liter or gallons. 3 gallons = 15 liters.

If it was my grow i would defo move in to the 3 to 5 gallon range and mix your medium with perlite and clay pellets at the bottom of the pot for air and water to easily seep through. Moving in to these size pots wont increase the size of the plant too much but it will increase yield. in the size you have you may well get a few ounce but because of the small pot that might be it. Rule of thumb is that the more medium you have the more yield too. You may end up with a 4' foot plant tho. You could always take some clone and cut them down a bit or you could lst super crop to keep the plant lower.

hope this helps mate.

I'll be watching...
