This is your fridge grow, yes? If the plants are only 4" away from the lights, they aren't going to stretch up and grow taller... get your lights at least 18-24" from your plants and you should see some growth. You should also start giving them some nutes to help them along!
Good luck!

Plant growing small.Hi all,
for no apparent reason, my plant is growing super small.
My TS600 at 30 cm distance should be enough, right?
I germinated in Rockwool and now my plant is being top fed for about 12 hours a day (top-fed DWC or Bubbleponics configuration)
My roots are white and growing.Week 1

What happens to my autos ? Too much fertilizer ? Nutrient block ?First week I tried the devil and fertilized my autos as little as possible, knowing it was useless... Big mistake.
After that I could see signs of too much fertilizer, i.e. pointed leaves and since then, slow growth with very small leaves. What has happened?

Growing problemMy last 6 plants (different strain and ferti) grow up slowly and with less foliage. Even in pre flower the plants stretch while I do LST, then at the 2nd flowering week they drastically stop stretching, is it normal? Every strain is having the same result approx 15g for plantBuds.

Dark leaves and short/compact plant18 days from seedling. Dark and a bit rumpled/twisted leaves. Branches are coming out but they don't have much space to breathe from the big leaves. Started topping with some chicken manure pellets, too much nitrogen? Also, the 36W LED lamp is only 20 cm away.a year ago

Northern Lights Auto, quite short and bushy, fan leaves shielding light - should I defoliate?First time grower with a quite short Northern Lights Auto in week 6. The fan leaves seem to shield a lot of light from the inner leaves, also touching ground. Should I trim the fan leaves? Or should I keep them, since it already seems stressed enough for it's short life…Plant. Too short

What do you guys think?It's my first grow (automatic, 6 weeks old) and compared to other plants, my plant looks a bit small/ridiculous. I give her 24/7 light (I read that on guides) is that maybe too much? What's your impression of her? I use two growlights (one from above and one from the side).Other. General questions

Pheno 2: Doesn't bounce back, not overwatered but shows symptomsPheno 2: Symptoms as if overwatered and over-fertilized (N). First can't possibly be true, second neither. Neatly monitored dry and wet periods. PH dialed in. It still grows. Pheno 1 gets treated completely the same and does fine. Instability or damaged DNA? Any possibly to save?10 months ago

Why is one plant lagging behind the others in growth?Does anyone have any idea why my plant no. 3 is stagnating in growth?
She had always the same amount of watering and conditions (except different medium) as the other two plants.
Yes, she is younger, but in relation to her age she seems to be developing much more slowly.Week 3
