Would you say that day 1 flowering sure can se few pistols starting
Good question. I don't actually know whether to start counting from when you first get pistils at the nodes or when you start getting them in the top bud sites. Lol. I guess if you start now it'll give you an estimate within a week.

Isit normal for them to be dry after a day of feeding so IL feed one night before lights out day after next it's dry but I leave till night to feed
They'll be stretching now so will get through it.
Are you fully soaking the pots to run off?

Yeah mate I pump 2 liters each so got good run off I got 1 that still heavy but 4 are really dry already
Guessing they've got a well developed root system and are sucking it up then.

Yeah maybe why they toke along time to shoot up I think they vegged for 6 weeks so you think just do the 4 an leave that other till she goes dry or just do all tonight bro?
Depends how wet it still is. If it's close enough I'd water them all to save messing about but if she's still quite heavy I'd leave it. If the other 3 carry on at a rapid rate that 1 might be ready for a drink when the others have dried up again and you can do all 4 together then.

The minute you flip to 12/12 the cycle starts weather you see pistils or not , however, you will see pistils within a week of the flip. Photo period seeds
Yeah I know that. But many don't count that time period between the flip and seeing pistils in their flowering time. That's what I was meaning. So for example 8 weeks flowering time would be 9 weeks from flip.

Just a little update on the set up as I toke the blurple out as wasn't doing much and now borrowed my friend light can't remember what it is ino it's energy saving and it's the flower bulb but here it it now that's after just turnt on so will be going back up in hour or so we how bright it's got
Looks like a CFL. You can get them close to the canopy. You could probably get your LED a little closer too. Have you measured the lux at the canopy? Can get a lux meter app free on your phone or buy a meter. Gives you an idea how much light they're getting and you can measure different points to position your plants to get the most light. They've shot up for sure. Nice.
Are there 3 plants in the back there? Are they shorter than the front two and have they been more directly under the Mars light? Could just be a strain thing but to me it looks like the plants at the front have stretched more with larger internodal spacing.

That's it that's what he said and the 2 big ones were at the back so they were getting more of mars light but was getting abit close for my likeing so switched 2 front for 2 back as CFL doesn't get hot an thinking mars will help stretch back ones and 2 outa off 3 smaller ones where quaded and the other is a different strain that tropic punch 2 tall ones 1 got toped and one just was picking few leaves from but there so much more healthy now an really starting to smell in there I'm waiting for bad leaves to get weak so with a tap of finger they snap or IL leave it for next day but bin ok last couple days
