new to growing and RIU!! 1000w FFOF grow. 1x WWxBB 1x iced grapefruit 1x blueberry

This is my first grow ever. I am 10 days into flower right now and 16 days into 12/12. I have a 1000w switchable ballast and had my ladies vegging for 33 days before switching to 12/12.. I boxed a 5'x5'x8' area around a window in a spare room. I have an intake in the window and a 6" vented hood/vortec exhaust setup exiting through the attic. Temps are 65-68 (with space heater) at lights off and 73-76 light on and humidity around 35%. Im using the fox farm trio with FFOF soil and things seem to be going well so far! thanks to all the lurking i do on the boards, so much good info around here!! I was a little lost and afraid to do anything on my first grow but i topped my iced grapefruit and left the other ones. I wish that i had topped all the plants but it was my first and a learning lesson. These ladies are bushy as hell!! If you guys have any questions or advice let me know!! Sorry about the pics, im going to take some shots in the next couple days when i water out of the hps light. Hope to have some seasoned vets following along as i will probably need some wisdom in the near future!! Ill take some quality pics every seems to be 3-5 days when i water. The last (horrible hps) pic is from tonight 1/12/13.

Thanks 71bigcat! Just watered tonight, i'm 16 days into flower. What do you guys think?? First three pics are the WWxBB, last two are the iced grapefruit that i topped. Still kicking myself for not topping the other plants!! Then theres my viscous guard dog in the middle :)
 
I'm pissed my phone won't load pics! Ok I'll get on the computer soon and check them out, I got a grow journal going for my blue cheese. I'm gonna order the ww x bb with my next check.
 
those pics are amazing!!!! congrats bro looks great for your first grow! how tall were your plants before you switched to flower?
 
Thanks man! The wwxbb was 15" and the other two were 13". Ill have to measure them when the lights go back on but they have at least doubled
 
My plants got too big to take them out of the room for pics. I tried to cover the hps light and take a couple shots but it didn't turn out all that well. Im going to take some pics in the morning right after the light turns off...

29 days into flowering

Its starting to give off a really strong fruity smell and they're sticky as hell! I just watered last night with big bloom, tiger bloom, and a 1/2 dose of grow big. I don't think i'm going to be using the grow big for the rest of flowering?? I'm 4 weeks into flower, used grow big for the first week of it, and have just been using the other two until this watering. Everything seems to be going well, i thought they would of died on me a while ago haha. I just got a little 60x pocket microscope and eco tester 2 - ph pen in the mail this week. I was using the drops to test my ph levels. I think i need to break down today and buy an actual camera instead of using my phone.
