Proper size of my plants

Just wondering if my plants are growing slow or if there doing fine? Are they suppose to be bigger? I put the germinated seed in the dirt on April 5th...they all sprouted from the ground in 24-72 hours...so if I include those 3 days it would make them all 21-23 days old..

No, they are 20 days old, they are not born until they come out of the ground and open their leaves. They are a bit stretched, but with a T5 you can have it as close as 2 inches, which will stop them getting too lanky. This light really isn't that strong, this is why they may seem a bit small for 3 weeks nearly.

Fayah_Burn answered grow question 14 seconds ago Hey mate! The plants look fine! The stems are getting very long though.. you can burrie them a little deeper when you transplant, in the meantime you could give them a little support with little sticks or pieces of wire for example.. And like HerbalEdu mentioned lower the light a little. Good luck 🍀 with your first grow! If you have any question send me a message

Look like they stretched a bit too much, light too far and 39w remain pretty small. Regarding that they're doing well, but mine are bigger at the same stage with a 250w as comparison.
