Hey everyone I hope all is well. I am on 3rd week of flower and wanted opinions on how they look and If they are doing good. They are on small side which is okay. It looks like a little nitrogen toxicity in some areas and a few spots from deficiencies in past but otherwise look good to me. Are the buds forming a The right pace for 3rd week and do they look healthy? I know they are getting pretty sticky which I believe is a good thing. Should I expect them to grow any bigger or just making buds bigger? I apologize if I am annoying I just want to make sure the grow is going like it’s supposed to or at least for the most part
First time grower in flower stage

Just fine for the amount of excess nitrogen they have. Always remember that too much Nitrogen in flower WILL decrease bud development always.

Yeah what he said 
Looks good though mate. They won't get any taller. Should fill out nicely too by the look of it

Looking good for your first grow. Give yourself a pat on the back.
Your girls actually look very advanced for only being 3 weeks into the flowering stage. Often times excess N during early flower will delay bud set but your girls are well on thier way and looking good for the most part.
Unless you're growing a pure or mostly pure long flowering sativa you can expect the stretch to more or less stop once full flower formation or bud set occurs. So from this point forward you can expect them to stop stretching and watch as the buds start to form and fatten up. As fanleaf mentioned, you want to avoid excessive nitrogen during the flowering phase of growth. In addition to clawed leaves and burnt leaf tips, excess N late in flower can also lead to delayed maturation, increased susceptibility to pest, overly fluffy buds, harshness, and in some cases can cause a plant to turn hermophidite in the final weeks of flower. During flower it's best to follow the less is better mantra when it comes to nitrogen and let the plant let you know when it needs nitrogen by monitoring the leaves for yellowing instead of trying force feed. Assuming that you're growing in an organic soil medium, unless you're growing a long flower sativa you shouldn't need to apply any N after week 3 to 4 following bud set. Wish you all the best for a successful harvest coming soon.

Keep watering - they look great. If you want the plants to grow bigger flowers give them plenty of water and get a fan on them if you haven't already.
Fans + water = bigger healthier plants.

Looks great. Maybe a little over watering unless lights were just coming on.

I could be wrong. So don’t get all worried. But 2 of the pics look like a start of some powdery mildew? The splotchy patches on some of the leaves is what I’m looking at. I’ve not had WPM before. But I’d love to know if those splotches are what I’m thinking.
Hard to tell if its PM or not - kinda sorta looks like it but still plants are growing great.
The PM if left un-checked will become a BIG issue. Big enough to toss the plant.
It takes some time to develop.
I use Southern Ag - Garden Friendly Fungicide - its an organic bacteria that eats mold/pm and the spores. Usually 1 or 2 sprays is enough for a grow. I've had good luck with it. Mix like a tsp to a gal of water and spray lightly covering leaves. It works great.
OP post some new pics of the leaves with the white stuff on them??
