A. What type light
B. Are the seeds from breeder or bag?
C. What week are you at?
D. Nutrients?
My opinion ( underline opinion), it looks like the leaves are a bit light. This could be from a: overwatering b: underfeeding.
Check the weight of the pots when the leaves start to droop ( that means you need water). Water until there is a 10% run-off. That is the average weight your pot should feel like when properly watered.
Nutrients deficiency: the leaves will continue to turn lighter and possibly reach the younger leaves ( plant is looking for nitrogen).
Those would be my 2 choices to look at.
Alaskan Fish Fertilizer ( 5-1-1) for 2 weeks, 2 Tablespoons in 1 gallon of ph balanced water, silica, 5 mls cal- mag if in coco coir.
How strong is that light?

Being an auto, what do you think the chances of the stunted baby turning around? Will it still yield ok or will it stay miniature throughout its cycle. Literally the vertical growth stopped after about an inch and it’s first leaves are tiny. The second set are just sprouting now.Week 3

Hey Growmunity,
To all the LED Growers!
Do you also have Problems concerning the height of the plants? Quality was always good but I always had the feeling that the ladies could be bigger.
Any suggestions?

Hi Growers,
4 of my plants stopped to grow after day 3. I didn't use any kind of nutrient.
I am growing in soil feeding 6.5 PH water with 0.3 EC. My runoff was 7.8 ph and 3.6 EC.
I flushed 2 of my Plants on day 7 to see any improvement.
is it overwatering or root PH,EC problem?Week 2

Two plants but one is small! Same tent, same nutrients and similar issues but different resultsOne of my plants is super small and I have no idea why. Initially I thought it was a magnesium deficiency but clearly it was not only that. The issues became apparent between weeks 4 and 6, right after the last transplant. Any idea what could've caused this?

Container to increase air humidityI'm already having a wet towel in my room 24/7, but I think it would be very beneficial if I could increase the air humidity around my plant to 60%+ (now at around 40%). Would it work to put a glass or plastic container on the plant until it has reached a certain development?Week 1

Hi guys.
Considering the several problems of this grow, how I can change my setup for the next grows?
Now I'm using Plagron Alga fertilizers and the Promix substrate (no fertilized). Do you suggest to set the lamp in bloom mode (more reds) also during the veg phase?
Thanks,

Plants are too small?? HELP??I just started my first grow two weeks ago today and noticed they are a bit small compared to other grows and autos I have seen. I am currently feeding them: 2ml calmag, 2ml micro, 4 ml bloom and around 100ml per plant every 24 hours. Am I overfeeding, underfeeding? any ideas?

Trying to grow upHello fellow gardeners,
This is my first Hydro grow. Seems to be going good, but I feel all plants are rather short. Am I supplying too much light so they don’t stretch out, or is something else going on? 4” tall after 4 weeks seems a bit short, but is growing plenty wide.
