They stand right around 15 inches. If I'd flower now, how tall and how much bud would be expected at harvest. Just a ballpark, cuz I'm clueless.

Crit mass was the easiest, quickest, and nicest looking of the 3 strains I grew. An awesome strain, you will like it for sure.
 
OK! Day 2 of flower! I was dealing with pretty severe drooping and yellowing of the plants. Someone on here mentioned Calcium deficiency, so I adding a few Cal pills to a gallon, and walla! 2 days later, they are healthier than ever. I will be using Fox Farms Tiger Bloom and Big Bloom during flowering, although I think there is a week on the feeding schedule during flower that calls for some grow big, so maybe a bit of that too. They are LOADED with preflowers! Im super stoked!

I had to go to a funeral out of state and am still away from my own computer but I am checking in with my friends computer. Glad I could help. I like to add calcium at low doses because it can cause phosperous lockout if you add too much. The one pill should last a while, at least a couple of weeks. Epsom salts is magnesium sulphate and I typically add it at one teaspoon per gallon along with nutes every time I feed depending on what the other nutrients I am using contain and my water going as high as two teaspoons per gallon at times.
 
Your probably fine, maybe a mild flush before you start the bloom nutes. A little calcium goes a long way. The only reason I am cautious with calcium is my tap water has a lot of it and when I started my high phosperous regime with the added calcium it caused a minor problem at the worst possible time. I was using a soilless medium and it was easy to correct with a flush and no harm was done. The calcium pills I have are pretty big pills, I think Natures Way is the brand name but I will check when I get home.

I use store bought spring water. But yea since I've added the calcium, I've watered just with water twice, and once with veg nutes. I'll be starting my bloom nutes tonight most likely. But they look incredibly better, so thx
 
Day 6 of flower! Hairs are finally starting to show up. NL is not smaller than the rest, its just sensitive to the lights, so I have in about 6 inches lower than the others. Shes in the back left! :high-five:

Is it normal for lower fan leaves to die off like the ones here?
