Stunted growth?

1Right_Anglestarted grow question 5y ago

Why is this Indica so short? Week 5 of Flower finds this otherwise healthy Blue God standing tall at only 15” from the soil. Five week Veg?, 3100K lites?, I have no solid reasons to this point. Funny because it’s the first plant Indoors that I have not Shaped or HST’d.

Erm Indicas are notoriously short but even they can stretch alot when flipped it all about how long you veg them for :) it could just be a short pheno :) lower temptures can stunt growth :)

General feedback Any feedback would be greatly appreciated, to me the plant looks healthy, however it is a bit small considering it’s age, right? I’m thinking it may be because of the cheap ‘300W’ light I was using at the beginning of the grow. What do you guys think? (Video end of week 6)

Seedlings staying low, am I doing something wrong?Are these on track or slow/low? 1st time grow, 3 auto varieties. Today is the 14th day since seeds hit the soil. They look healthy, but they're all only 1.5" to 2" tall. Do I need to raise my lights? They're currently @ 14" above the leaves with 1x225wLED & 2x 32wLED.

Slow seedling growth?The growth feels quite slow - Have outdoor seedlings growing at a much faster rate (Especially stretching towards the sun) - Could this be my lighting? All sprouted over the last 4 days (50 CM from LED - Just switched over to the VEG only light mode to see if they stretch a bit)

Small problematic seedling So this rqs Lemon seed during germination came out with the leaves first, so I removed the seed shell to uncover the roots, because I didn’t know if planting it anyway would’ve been good. Now it’s been 20 days and it’s still so small. Will it make it?

Stunted plant or genetically impaired?Hello, first indoor grow. I’ve got 6 seedlings, germinated the 18th. All the same strain(OG Kush) and same growing techniques medium etc. One is way smaller, has been since germ, with staggered growth. Possible explanations? Genetics? Comparison vs healthy plant in photo. Thanks!

1 of my plants looks different Any info on the middle plant in the first photo. it’s smaller and seems to be more dense then the other 2 it’s odd. Same seeds as the others is it just odd genetics ? The fan leaves have been fatter and wider. Seems completely healthy.

Special Queen from RQS growing in an unusual pattern This plant suffered stress from heat on week 1, so its growth was delayed from the other plants. By week 4, its height was about half of the others. She also split its branches (twice!) and is growing in a very different pattern than the others. Does anyone know the reason why?
