Damn, the smaller one still feels moist and heavy. Has not had water in a few days now.
I'm in love with the Sherbert queen, she really looks sexy! (bottom right)

I cut some leaf, not to much i hope ?

Maybe someone can help with advice on that.
I don't know if for example a flush could help getting the old water out. I it's wet so long the water might have become bad. But i don't know if that is a possibility.
But it would be nice to get the plant to drink some more from the bottom.
I know if it's too wet for too long it will start smelling and thats not good.

No i'm not flushing again, since the flush i'm having difficulty watering
Worst case she goes out, gives the others some extra room, but i'll see in the next days.
No smells yet,

Oh you already did ha ha sorry. And i don't know how well that works in soil.
But it might make a small nute buildup if much of the water evaporates vs the plant drinks the water but i think it will catch up.
It already looks like it have.

Hmmmmm.
Uhhhhh.
Umm.
Adding water doesn't dry anything or "untrap" water. Although, walk me through this because I'm imagining clay in soil right, getting bound up with a bit of dirt's got some moisture in her eh? Like a loaded pyrohy but wet inside. And you're on about making the clay containment too wet to be cohesive right? Because then it cannot lock up the non-clay soil; as it's got the moisture.
And to be sure, I can go get some mud out back where there is clay, and wrap it 'round my pot soil- which has water added. When that dries a bit I can put it out in the rain for .3 seconds, which will, by this reckoning, then free the trapped wet soil.
To be sure I've got this image correct.

New day, new insecure me..

I think I’ve got the watering for the 3 big ladies sorted, but I feel like the others aren't doing so well. They look drowned, but the soil was dry. So I watered them anyway. What do you think of how they look?

Held a photoshoot.

Coppery tinting at veg leave edges (edit: not base) equals phosphorus uptake issue. I mean don't take it as gospel but do you test your soil mid grow? Sometimes that can also be cold but not usually.

Yeah we were just talking about the smaller ones being maybe a bit bottom heavy. Trying to figure out if it was ok or not.

And captain i was thinking about how you water.
I mean how quick or slow you water?
I'm just thinking if the water runs to the bottom without getting the upper part wet.
The soil can be hard to get wet if it has been dry. At least mine are.
Just a thought.

ps I can see the link so not all europe blocked

Not sure how to do it but anyway it's a common soil test for nutrients, N-P-K-pH, you mmake a water slurry with a chunk of soil then add the test chem and shake, you get a color code result that tells you what's in the soil now.

i give them a bit, then wait till it gets absorbed before i give more, so about a minute to give a liter.

Not really understanding the need or desire to test this medium. These plants looks fine. A few appear more hungry than others but they are all individual plants so each may have their own needs.

Proper dose increase as ya go. Theyll demand more in this stretch phase and not slow down till late flower.

Was it really dry when you watered? Did you lift the pot? Did the posture of the plant change when you watered? If it stayed saggy its prob to wet.

Ain't it fun getting all this info to sort out? Lol

I test a few times per grow, I mean a $10 kit for a bunch of tests isn't much compared to losing weight or something. It's tinting copper/purple on the fat ends of fans, so if it's not cold it's Phosphorus. Ain't time for pheno colors and not late flower chomping reserves.
