no flush needed. when they need water next just use plain water with nothing added so they use up some of that xtra nutes, and then start them back on a feed schedule.
also nine quarts is only about 2 gallons plus an xtra quart and your are not all the way full so i am guessing their is a gallon and a half of dirt in theri. when i was doing in door i would use no smaller then 3 gal and no bigger then 5 for flower. i flowered under 1 600 as well.
if your lights are smaller and less watts that usally means smaller plants witch would mean smaller pots witch is ok
havent had them snap but im sure it has happened, i have had mine start to bend down very far so i had to tie them up and im sure eventually they would have broke. if the plant is healthy and grown right it should be able to support its self for the most part

Coco, my 2 1/2 cents on your plants is that I would flush the shit out of them, I would pH plain tap water to 6.0 and flush 3 times the size of your container. Then when they are ready for another feeding, go with 1 tsp of TB, and 1 tblsp BB and I would also go 1 tsp of whatever Micro Nute you are using and mix into a 1 gallon of water and pH that to 6.5. I use Fox Farms Lineup as well. Earthjuice Micro Blast for my micro nute!
I say flush cause when you do it with 5.8-6.0pH it will shut down the plants system and put them to sleep, after a day they will wake up and wicker the shit out of the soil to get all the water out hence wickering the extra "N" as well.
I flush my plants every single feeding, and I am telling you if you flush them with 5.8-6.0pH water you will notice a big difference in a matter of 2 days. Make it Rain on them and they will be back on track before you know it. I am sure the are others on here that Make it Rain can say that this will work and it will also give your plant and the soil a clean slate. Hope that helps bro and good luck!
Last but not least....DONT TRANSPLANT THEM AT ALL DURING FLOWERING...it will change its focus on establishing roots and not budsites.

Thanks all for the feedback. Heres what Im gonna do:
Im gonna feed today with 2 gallons of clean tap water. I havent PH'd up to this point, so Ill just keep ghetto in that respect.
Then, tomorrow, I will get them back on the feeding schedule by giving them a 50% of the recommended dose.
After that, I will give nutes every other feeding at full strength. I dont have micro nutes, so Ill just be using the FF bloom duo.

try it this one time, you wont regret it bro, trust me on this one! Ph your water to at least 6.0
MCP here is my new LST project, I posted on here before so here is a quick update:
Venom OG Kush (Flowering Day 9)
5 gallon Billcollector99 Smart Pot, Fox Farms Soil and Nutes. This is the largest container I have ever grown out of with soil! She is going to be a monster. Coco, I flush this plant with 10 gallons of 5.8 pH water every time I feed her......I had to re=arrange here tie downs cause she wont fit in my bathtub for flushing. She was more spread out but now I gave up some slack with the ties. I need more room to grow...LOL
Here is my Jack Herer that is Root Bound but the budsite are developing nicely. I figure I post a pic of a root bound plant for Coco. It has not been LST'd at all just a Uncle Ben Topping. I messed up cause I wasnt thinking it was going to get this big after I topped her. Lesson learned but at least a root bound plants buds still going strong.
Jack Herer (1 gallon pot)
Sorry I havent posted much on in awhile but been really busy with work. Trying to save up to move this summer into a bigger place. Have a good one fellas!

Not sure, but it doesnt hurt to pour water in a cup and drop some vinegar in it and check the pH to see if it lowers it. I would look on google for things around the house to use to lower your pH. I buy pH down form a local farmers nursey here, they make it themselves and sell it for 5 buck for 32 oz. I am sure someone on here can help out with what you can use to pH your water.
I will hit you guys up later, gotta run back to work, lunch is over! LOL

I know I have to get some pic's up but I have a Blue Cheese from seed in the flowering room. I just cut her loose this morning. It looks pretty popcorn-y, but it's only on day 25 so it's anybody's guess. The other Blue Cheeses we have are going to be monsters.

true, ive seen riddleme work and others grows using his method but to me it seems like more work for not much of a difference, i have not done it my self so i cant really say to much about it though.

Coco if you follow exactly what I wrote earlier about pH-ing your water and how much to use and feed what I recommended, thats "Making it Rain" that way you give your soil a clean slate and can feed and monitor feeding dosages. IMO there is no better way to water while growing in soil. There is a lot of people feeding their plants this way and as well as modifying RM3 original method. Read his thread and you will learn tons, might take a couple of months but I read through his whole entire thread.
Valle, good looking on posting the thread!
I just made it rain on my Venom OG Kush, she is all droopy looking now but will perk up tomorrow and I will post pics of her perking....LOL Hope everyone has a great weekend!
