 First grow, log of my 15 friends developement.

I started a grow about 3 weeks ago, I planted 23 seeds, 20 came up quickly, and I culled the 5 worst ones. I have 15 left, in different sized pots.
One plant I put in a small pot just so that I can grow it to like a foot or a foot and a half, and put it into flowering, so that I can have a little bit of smoke till the harvest of the rest. I'll put it into flowering by growing it in my room, with just a little light through the day, and complete darkness for 12 hours. I'd like to go to sleep with a marijuana plant right next to me. Even if I only get like 5-10g off it, I won't mind.
The rest I'll try and get as big as possible, hoping to get 2 ounces average per plant. My two biggest I am aiming to get a half pound from (combined, a quarter pounder each.), and the rest I would like to get at least 50g from per plant.
I am growing outdoors, in pots, in my back yard, they will be getting at least 12-13 hours direct sunlight, (at the moment I am keeping them out of direct sunlight from 11:30 till 14:00-14:30, it is pretty hot these days.)
I live in a very moderate climate, the second most moderate in the world (Mossel Bay, next to Hawaii, and we all know about the good weed coming from the Hawaiian outdoor growers.) and I am growing a combination of some local sativa's, and a single Super Skunk plant.
I am growing a Swazi/Durban Poison/combination of the two. (Seed from a very good bagseed grow, that turned hermaphrodite, and even though it was filled with seed, it was VERY good weed, so without seed, and with MUCH better soil (I helped grow it, and I saw the soil it was planted in, it was SHIT.), not to mention the plant was grown in winter, I am SURE I am going to get some really good weed off it.
The other strain I am growing is a mixture of this, and White Widow/Jack Herrer. (Seed from a local grower, grew originally from bagseed from Holland (how he found a seed in amsterdam weed is beyond me, I think he bought an ounce and found one seed, probably pollinated by air, from a seed production nearby.), and it was also very good, I mean VERY good, and it was also grown in winter.
The final one was a seed I got from some good Super Skunk I smoked with a friend, when he gave me a bud to look at, I saw a seed and took it out, and then planted it when I got home.
I do not know which is which, but I will know when they get bigger and when I smoke them.
Here is my first pics:
My mutant fan leaf. (It also started with 3 first "real" leaves, and the first leaves where split.)
This I suspect is the Super Sunk, it looks like it has more Indica in it than the rest, can someone confirm this?
There you have it, my little pot garden after 3 weeks.
Oh, yea, here is my soil mix:
A mix of a very good soil that can be a little too water retentive, and not as good soil that is dryer. On my best plants, which I transplanted earlier, I only have the better, more water retentive soil, and the last 2-3 inches are filled up with the mix.
Now, I used chicken shit pellets as mix, I didn't really check percentages much, but I know there is quite a bit of it in, but over time the nutrients will be flushed out (I have put in a little much, but nothing serious.), if I use a little more water than normal, but wait longer in between for my soil to dry out, gradually flushing 20% of nutes over 2-3 weeks.
At the bottom of the pot, about where the roots will be just before it hits flowering, I mixed in some bonemeal, and there is no chicken shit there, so that my P levels are maxed out during flowering, for nice tight buds.
With every watering, I add seagrow, a very, VERY good fish emulsion that cannot burn, at all. (Once while giving some to my plants in the garden some of it, the cap burst off and the whole lot went over a single rosemary plant, the rosemary didn't burn, but it is 7ft tall now.)
I just pour a little bit in my water (like a million times more than they say, but if anything, it will help my plant, as it cannot burn.) before I water my plants. I will continue to give my plants seagrow for the whole growth season, mainly for the micro nutes. My friend grew a 7ft sativa that is pretty tight and through topping has 4 main colas that have twice the amount of bud than an average potted sativa's cola and 6 side colas that are about the size of an average plants main cola. (Note this is outdoor so you will find plants MUCH bigger, but he had to top the plant quite a few times as otherwise it will pop over the wall (which it is about to do, let's just hope it doesn't grow at all in length but a lot in width.) he has it next to and then the neighbours will see his huge plant.)
JUST by using seagrow in his SHIT garden soil. (The soil here is so bad, I wouldn't even call it soil, I call it shit sand, and is pretty alkaline, as we live right next to the ocean.)
But he does have a pretty big green thumb, and it is his first summer grow, both his other (REALLY GOOD.) grows where in winter.
I got my seeds from him btw, and all I know is, even though the plant it came from was a hermi, the weed was SICK and pretty potent as far as South African weed goes, it didn't have much yeild though, as a gram probably had like 10 seeds. I am guessing it to either be Swazi, Durban Poison, or PPP. (The only South African strains I know about, and I know it came from a sick South African bud, infact, I smoked some of the bud the original seed came in.)

Now, for the pics: My plants are 6 weeks old. (Just looked at a grow journal I was going to keep, but forgot about, the first seedling came up less than 6 weeks ago.)
This is from inside, right next to my computer, where I study, listen to music, and type this:
Basically for 12+ hours of the day, I am a few feet from my plants, and it's secure too, as I got a place I can hide it in less than a minute. (there is a door leading to the garage, and RIGHT at that door, is a trailer with a closing top. In the case of a search, or visitors that are working on my computer or something, I can just grab my plants and put them in the trailer, close it, and lock it.
This is my best plant, it is the tallest, densest, with the biggest leaves:
Is this preflowers?
11 finger leaf:
The plant with the stem that broke off.
From the other side of the wall, the pool area where my plants used to be when they where small.

UPDATE!
I didn't realize they grew this much in 8 days!
Eleven finger leaf...
To see the root-to plant ratio to make sure I don't put my plants in too small pots, I planted my slowest growing seedling in this tiny pot, and it still isn't root bound...
It's a lot of pics, but man, my plants have been GROWING, in 6 days it will be about 2 months old. I wouldn't mind it going into flowering right about then. I hope to get 2 ounces+ per plant, and I hope that they are mostly female and few hermies. (It is seeds from a hermaphrodite, so they are feminized, but can still go hermi.)
