So just hit my girls with their first CAT at day 24 and realized I didn't give them a straight water after the GE so they got hit with GE then CAT back to back and so far they're seeming like they're loving it...
Timing the cationic drench
Looks great!! Nice clean setup Btw!

Just an observation but notice the Fan is directed at or near the bottom of that felt pot,
Have you noticed any problems with Root/Soil temp. I ask because I use a small tent and have
only a a few places I can place my fans without directing them at the pots. If I could do that with
no issues it would be a big help.

So I'm getting dying leaves under the canopy and I thought it was the start of some mites maybe but now with all of this talk about fabric pots and not being as good for the roots I'm starting to think that fan might be a problem right there....

I don't like the fabric pots cuz my plant keeps falling over.

A quick fix for anyone who wants to switch mid-stream
Wrap the felt pots with saran wrap

I have a tiny tent... no extra space really. So what I did for great circulation... I went to Wally World and bought one of those tall tower oscillating fans... turned it upside down and strapped it to the bars at the top of the tent... works so good! Couldn’t be happier and it hardly takes up any space.
Sorry about the bad pics... those cheap Leds are hell on the camera.
Edit: Forgot to mention, I believe I drilled holes in the plastic base and then ran wire through them to give me a good secure area in which to hang it. Just make sure its up there good, they aren't that heavy... but still... dont wanna have it fall on your beautiful ladies!

I put a 2x4 in the corner of my tent and have my oscillating fan hanging from that. Plus my swamp cooler is aimed at both tents blowing on them at all times when lights on. I could probably take out the fan underneath since I already have so much airflow
I've never had a tower style oscilating fan last more than 3-4 months.

I use a mini tower and it has lasted two grows so far.
I have been through probably 4 tower fans so far. I order the same one over and over though as I like the non-digital tower fans. At varying times the gears that control the oscillation tear up and turn into a black powder. Not a huge deal, I have come to accept it as part of the growing process.
Well that sucks... I haven't had any problems myself. Ive had that tower fan about a year now, runs 24/7 on low while oscillating and only cost about 25 bucks. I also use two smaller tower fans, have had them a couple years now, they run with lights on only. I do not have space for a round oscillating fan, so I use what I need.

Just a possible reason for early failure, to much Humidifier moisture getting sucked through it
That's definitely possible... I have mine inside my tent... humidifier outside of tent... so that's a reasonable assumption.
You guys think these are about ready? I've been waiting till They were nice and set, today is Day 25 post flip. Next feeding will be Wednesday/Thursday.
Sorry for the bad pics... I think I just need a proper light of the right temp to get better pics.

I would say they are ready. I noticed in the pictures we use the same mini tower fan.

Definitely ready
Ditto. 
In fact, very nice timing. 
In fact, very nice timing. I love that little fan... I have another one, an older model, in my veg cabinet. They both do so awesome! I just shut them down at night and leave the big one running all night, it doesn't have any lights on it.
Thanks everyone for the quick responses! I really appreciate that, I will Cat later this week once they are a bit more dry. MMMMM can't wait to see em get nice and frost... I am so excited about this grow, I've had great support from very patient people.
