Soy consciente que a las plantas les faltan horas de luz; pero no conozco muchas zonas del planeta en las que existan 18h de luz natural😅. Creen que es normal que mis plantas en su día 22 sigan tan pequeñas? Cúales pueden ser los motivos? Espero puedan ayudarme 😎

A little small perhaps but the correct amount of leaves. It also looks a bit pale indicating more light could be used. But are you outside already with these? You are right nobody who grows outside is going to get the 18 hours they talk about using inside. Starting this late I'm also assuming this to be an auto plant as unless you're on the other side of the planet, you have the season backward. I start the first day of spring (3/21) for sprouting, use artificial light in my Mondi greenhouse only till plants throw true leaves. Then they go outside using sunshades to control how much light they get. (this must be watched diligently as to not burn them) I vary the layers of sunscreen plastic (auto window tint stuff) to match the lumen output I want to reach the plants using a light meter. More work but the sun is the king source of full-spectrum light and worth the extra time. In the time you mention my seedlings have reached the lid of the greenhouse and are "set free" from there on out, while still monitoring the amount of light they get until the third true leaf set is thrown. Then it's full power until it reaches over 90'F outside when sun shade becomes important to cool the plants. I move mine inside when temps get over 90F. Good Luck and Stay Safe!

I started my grow (quick one) in early September, outdoor, and at week 4 they looked pretty much exactly like yours. I'm now almost week 11 and the one plant is about 1m tall.

It's all about keeping the water pH levels between 6.2-6.5, using enough light at the right distance, using enough nutrients and watering precisely. It looks like you have been watering your plant too frequently. If there are too much water in the soil for too long, the roots will not be able to breathe and won't be able to grow properly. Good luck with your project, I wish you the best!
