Jack X Chitral, 1st grow, need help

http://www.yahooka.com/forum/attachm...1&d=1231522347

This is the first time growing this strain and am hopeful that the experts here can help. Started some beans that a friend gave. Jack X Chitral. They were given a year ago and only 4 out of the 10 sprouted. Early in their development, 2nd week in veg, one developed "wilt" and it passed. I cloned the plant and they are responding well. The photo attached is the remaining 3's 4th week.

I have never had plants in my E&F system be so short, although they are very bushy, in their 4th week. Normally they are over 2' where these are only 14" to 18" tall.

I have rigorously maintained a good environment, 4'x4'x7' grow cab well vented and clean, am using a large bank (3.5' x 3.5') of large CFLs (I can vary the location and amount of light and this has been very successful before); the girls are on a 20/4 schedule now.

The E&F rez is changed every week with daily monitoring on the PH & PPMs. I use organic nutes and some additives. As the wilt was an issue I flushed and cleaned the entire system and reduced the nute regiment back to a more root productive effort.

Am prepping to change them into flower (pray they are all/most/some/one? females) and would like advise on how I can get them into a better state (more growth) for flowering and potential production. I am now starting to go back, since the plants look very healthy, to using Liquid Karma and foliar with Liquid Light & Pentrator twice a week @ half strength). I am still using Sensizyme and Green Fuse root stimulator.

Thanks to everyone in advance. I have been on another board for a while and it is good to be back here.
