My first grow seems to be going south?

Hi, so this is my first post, about my very first grow, which happens to be outdoor.
I live north of Seattle Washington, about 2 miles from the sound.

I have 2 different ages in my crop.
The tallest ones are 10 months old, and about 7 1/2 feet tall.
In those, I have 1 blue dream, 1 blueberry, 1 strawberry cough, 8 AK-47, 5 hash.

The shorter ones are 5 months old, and average between 3 and 4 feet tall.
In those, I have 2 black cherry soda, 1 9 pound hammer, 1 girlscout cookie, 1 white widow, 2 blackberry, 1 UW purple, 10 strawberry cough clones, 15 blueberry clones.

I primarily use compost tea as their nutrient solution, comprised of bat guano, earthworm castings, azomite rock dust, Organic Alaskan Fish Fertilizer, brown sugar, coffee grounds, calmag and superthrive.
That soaks in filtered water, mostly rain and some spring water, with multiple air stones in the bottom. I try to keep the pH around 5.8, as the soil is 7.2 naturally, with the hopes that equals out around 6.5.


So far they all seem to really enjoy the feeding regiment I've been using. I schedule them at 4 compost tea feedings a week, of 3 gallons for each plant. M-W-F-Sat Night.
They get pure water each afternoon, about 5 gallons each.
Bug control comes from organic neem oil, and ladybugs.

Most of them are doing ok, and I am doing the final trim on them all week. 12 of my smaller plants seem really close to ready, and one of my AK's is dealing with a hell of a lot of purple on the fan leaves.


Any advice or criticism on this crop would be Greatly appreciated.IMG_20160920_082807189.jpg IMG_20160920_082807189.jpg IMG_20160920_082733039_HDR.jpg IMG_20160920_082511661_HDR.jpg IMG_20160920_082658002.jpg IMG_20160920_082825184.jpg IMG_20160920_083008863.jpg
 
Purpling is do to cold temps ....looks nice for the most part ....hope it finishes up before wet weather causes issues ...GL
Thank you.
The crap on the ground is mostly from trimming this morning, but I am worried that I planted them all way too close together.

I don't think you have any problems except they are running out of time.

Those plants look good but I would definitely be worried about running out of time. I'm growing some aquaponics in my garage in Kent, Wa. I got my seeds from thegreenpool.net and the one female I had was great smoke! Are you getting clones or growing these from seed?
 
The majority are clones from mothers, which are from seed. I have the mothers too.
For sure running out of time. It's a minute by minute fight right now, with the sprinkles. I don't want to harvest before they're ready though, or I cut down their potential.
Thank you all for the advice!
