Well. These ladies are showing classic signs of underfeeding and have slowed down their growth. I think I am having some troubles with the nutes I am mixing together. I have a hunch that some of them are clashing and reacting with each other. To fix this, I decided to order a new line-up of nutrients and stop using my pieced-together regiment.
These ladies are going to react nicely to the higher PPMs. Stay tuned!

I figured out my nute issue. Turns out my base nutes were having a reaction with my flower booster and organic nutes. I also found out my organic PH buffer was reacting with my nute regiment.... Switched to almost pure FF at a whopping 950 PPM with little nutes and effort. My new nutes are coming in the upcoming days. In the meantime, i can already see the positive response from the heavier feeding. CM² is turning purple?........ WHA....?
Oh and these ladies are smelling so FINE. wow. Like a dank, tropical mandarin orange. I do get a deep creaminess at times as well.
I am hoping I fixed my nute issues early enough. Regardless, these ladies are filling their space and still LOVING the lights. It feels so good to have a full, happy tent.
Added more fans for added upper airflow!

MAMA MIA!!! Yo boy pulled a stupid move. I tried training CM² and ended up bending a branch at the base. I quickly stopped applying pressure to that branch once it gave out(bent), so I am thinking it will recover. This girl is already mid-flower and made her side-branches super rigid. Although CM² is the shortest, she has by far the thickest side branches. She also has the most bud developement.
This plant has to be a different Pheno than the other two, considering the side and how much quicker this plant is maturing. This girl also grew different than the other two ladies, staying compact with very verticle side branches. In other words, I was trying to gently open this lady up a little. Looks like I was too late to properly LST this one, even though CM² is ironically the only one that needed it.
Now that I have been feeding heavier, I can see visible improvement on all three ladies. CM¹ and CM³ have more of a sour, tropical orange smell, while CM² has an interesting creaminess taking over her nose.
@DreamOn,
I enjoyed a few puffs. But my patients got to enjoy a majority of the puffs lol
This orangey, sativa pheno will be a different story though. I will definitely be keeping some for myself :)
