Cool, lookin good, but you want to lay off the leaf-sprinkling. What you are doing is called reverse foliar feeding. I see on some of the larger leaves where they are starting to get pale blotches- you're actually leaching nutes out of the leaves with the water.
You are also ready to start giving nutrients. Since you are in a hydroponic medium, you'll want to look into hydroponic nutrients and keep your pH lower than you would for soil.

thanks..I actually thought I was doing good for the plants...How often should I spray the leafs?

I have them on 24/0

I have "open sesame","cha ching" and "beastie blooms" for the flowering stage.

Is it bad that they are all about 3 or 4 inches high?

also cover the tops of your cubes if you want to keep the algae stuff away..

looking good!!

[johnnycupofcoffee]

I hate to sound like "one of them" but considering your lighting, your plants look really impressive. Throw those ladies in an Egg crate and get to training

[johnnycupofcoffee]

thank you..I give them a lot of attention. How long do you think it will be to tell their sex?

[johnnycupofcoffee]

can I start topping and clipping? if so where?
