Approximately 51 Days Flowering
I've been feeding with an organic tea mix that I made by soaking a sock filled with rich, dark, organic matter in a 5 gallon bucket of water for 2 days in the sun.
I've fed the two plants each a half gallon of tea over the past 10 days during the course of 3 feedings.
To compensate for the extra nutrients, I lowered the concentration of shultz liquid fertilizer added to my normal tap water by 75% (7 drops/gal. instead of 28 drops/gal.)
Many fan leaves on both plants have gone yellow and fallen off. It's always the lowest and usually largest (because they're oldest I guess) fan leaves that are discarded. The new leaves that have formed block too much light for them to be usable by the plant I suppose.
I've had a minor problem with burnt leaf tips throughout the grow but now it's starting to get worse and is showing up prominently on new growth, something that hasn't happened before. Previously I had attributed this to heat stress as it is generally 86 degrees inside the cabinet when the lights are on. Sometimes it creeps up to 90 and on a rare couple of days it's gotten as high as 95 but that was a few weeks ago.
IDK, It may not have anything to do with the heat. I'm going to get a soil ph tester tomorrow or maybe the next day when I'm in town. Maybe that will reveal the culprit.
Or perhaps that damn tea I made was too 'hot'. If the problem continues or worsens over the next two or three days, would flushing them again be recommended?
Also, to anyone following this grow log, after looking at the progression of the grow can anyone estimate a very rough harvest date? Looking at the trichomes with my 10x loupe, they appear to be mostly clear to cloudy to my untrained eye. Any guesses would be greatly appreciated.
I'm fairly certain that I'm not going to be able to judge the time correctly which will probably mean the plants won't get flushed for the full two weeks that they should. I gotta learn somehow.

 I've actually never won POTM, but I'm fine with that. I love seeing all the fantastic pictures on this site, so I love some competition

After posting in the Doctor's Diagnosis forum, m3kgt informed me that I've got classic nute burn going on what with the curled, brown leaf tips. It's been a problem throughout the life cycle of the plant on old growth, but it's just recently begun to appear on new growth.
I only had a few hours in the daylight cycle remaining when I checked the reply, nevertheless I flushed them with as much water as I could in the remaining few hours. Each pot got about one and a half times it's volume; not nearly enough.
This morning the soil is still very moist; should I chance trying to flush it some more so soon?
What am I risking, if anything, by flushing again today?
Should I give the soil a day to dry out a bit and flush the plants tomorrow instead?

Approximately Day 63 of Flowering / Beginning of Week 9
I've spent the week flushing my plants and after a short halt in growth, they're back at it again. This time it looks like buds are forming on top of buds. Outgrowths of patches of fresh new calyx's are sprouting from the sides and all over existing bud growth. It's fun to watch, each day. 
Also, as you can see, I've removed most of the zip ties. The inner "popcorn" buds were closer to the light than the main outer growth tips for awhile and that jacked up the hormones and made the little inner buds take off and grow. After I realized my mistake, I removed the straps and now the main bud sites are once again arched up above and receiving the highest intensity of light.
  
  
 
...and as you can see, I've got a few new arrivals.

Thanks for the kind comments, guys. 
I'm sure if you remember your first grows you must know how I absolutely ACHE to smoke these bitches! Their smell is strange to me. It smells skunky but, at the same time has this pungent, sweet almost fruity smell. 
Haven't seen the first amber trichome yet though...  but, that's a good thing I suppose. Just means there will be more to smoke when they do get finished.

Seeing as how it's getting close and all... and, seeing as how I don't have anything to smoke on right now...
You know where I'm going with this... Do I risk any reasonable harm to the remainder of plant by doing some mild early harvesting of some of the lower tiny bud sites, anyone?

being how some folks harvest their plants in stages I would say no harm would be done, this is done by friends as a way of sampling their plants

<--- currently manicuring buds. Fucking sweet.
I stole a few from the tall plant. I'm not bothered. They're just tiny little things that have been too far from my pitiful little CFL's to do anything. Well, they'll get me stoned tonight.

Green, right off the tree, this bud is way less harsh than the dried brick weed I usually smoke on. Doesn't takes like weed though. I'm guessing that's because it's green. Tastes like I smoked a fucking rose garden up in here.
The buzz feels pretty good now. At first it felt like I was thinking about it too hard to figure out if I was stoned or not but now I'm fucked. Before I smoked a bowl i Felt like making this post and now I just wanna go lay down on the couch.
Peace.
