What's the ph? What's the EC? How often are you watering?
They don't look bad, I'm guessing about thrre, four weeks old.

You can most likely cut your watering back to 30 minutes on, one to two hours off. And there isn't much need for water during the dark period. Ph sounds good tho the swinging sounds fucked up but happens to some growers. Knowing ec helps monitor nute strength. 1/4 should be safe.
What size, and kind of light are you running? And how far above the plant is it?

Watering during the dark is OK, it shouldn't hurt the plants at all. Tho it most likely isn't needed. The beginner rule of thumb with a drip is light on water on, light off water off. So you should be good to go on that part of life.
As for the light height, 60cm seems a bit far for a 250. Hold your hand above your plants palm down about 2 inches or so. Then lower the light until you feel the heat of the bulb on the back of your hand. Keep in mind if it's uncomfortable to your hand it will be harmful to the plants.

1)Did I do a right think by washing and diluting or is it normal for the plant to have this kind of burning at first?
Yes. A plant's size, age, health, etc.. can effect how much it wants to eat.
Quote:
2)Do my plants lack roots and is this the reason they couldnt handle the EC 1.2?
Could have something to do with it.
Quote:
3)Is it possible that my HM digital ec meter showing wrong EC?
Also a possibility.
Quote:
4)Do my plants still look good:)? Should I do anything else. (more diluting?or leaving them alone to adapt?)
Appear healthy in the pics to me. Tho I am a legally blind guy. Just keep the res topped off, and the ph right and see what happens.
Quote:
5)Is it better to produce roots first in the rockwool; and then feeding them in the reservoir because my other experiment rockwool plants roots are looking good and that made me think of this idea? And I saw some videos like this.
Yeah producing roots is a good way t start. In fact the first two to three weeks of a mj plant's life nutrients aren't needed.

If I were to top I'd use a razor blade, or a very sharp pair of scissors.

[quote- Should I use 600 watt HPS for the last stages of flowering to boost the ladies. May be a special lamp only for blooming? (not dual)]
If you want the biggest yield you can get, then yes switch to the 600 hps. As for bulb I recommend only the sper hps from either Ultra Sun or Hortilux.

- Would it be a mistake to cut the H2O2 after this week to let some beneficial organisms appear again or spread. Is sensizym effected by H2O2 btw?
Dropping the h2o2 shouldn't be an issue. I myself have never used it nor do I plan on it. Don't know if it effects the sensizym.
Quote:
- The on/off buton of the humidifier has a very tiny weak blue light. Do you think it will shock the plants while the lights off?
I'd tape that light over. I've seen less cause problems.
Quote:
- After this week Im planning to add canna boost and at one point canna pk. Do you think it will work with flora trio? Actually I bought a bottle of Big Bud two months ago(advanced nutrients) but I made a research and now I changed my mind to pay for canna boost and see what happens. Please correct me if Im bullshiting.
I don't know enough about the canna products to help ya here. I myself use the General Hydroponics boosters liuid and dry Koolbloom.

- Do you think they will stretch more and not fit in the cabinet; the most stretching is happening in the first two weeks of the flowering right? As seen from the pictures I have max. 1 foot height left for the cooltube. I hope it wont be a jungle.
Some strains will stretch for upwards of 5 weeks, 3 to 4 weeks is about the average stretch time.
Quote:
- Do I have a lot of colas for the space what do you think? Will it gonna work with this crowd the yield and humidity for the last weeks.
Looks good to me.
Quote:
- I have tied and bended one aggressive cola this doesnt harm it right? May be I will need to use this for others in the future if correct.
Just do your best not to break any,and you're golden. If one breaks use duct tape as a band aid.

The pics look , I'd be chopping in the next 7 to 14 days. If you're planning to flush, I'd sart it within the next few days. That this stage ripening happens fairly quickly.

but you gotta see how the strain responds to it.
Indeed. Watch for nanner's when pushing over time. Right many plants will herm if pushed for to long.
