Might have been a bit to close to the light in week 1 if it was at 100% but I think your main problem on why they are stunted is because you transplanted an autoflower. They do not like their roots disturbed in the slightest. They then went into flower shortly after. I have seen this type of issue in my grows before and now I try and never transplant autos, I grow them in there final pot, normally a 3gal. On your next grow try this and I bet you will grow much larger plants. One other point I think that will also help you is using 1/2 to 1/4 strength nutrients or monitoring the PPM/EC of the solution your feeding them, can do this with a TDS Pen. Autos dislike heavy feeding can cause them to go into flower early on as well. https://www.autoflower.net/forums/threads/med-man-method-feeding-chart-ppm-ec.47856/ great refrence point for ec levels.

Hi People!!! You are all amazing... I really appreciate your answers, especially thanks to m0use, very good information, I will check autoflower forum, :-) I will put the light a little far up from the plants and will monitor the process. Love you people. Take care! :-)

Ho appena notato che hai defogliato ed hai tolto le foglie più grandi....potrebbe essere anche quello che magari ha perso un po' di potenza per potersi slanciare....era presto per defogliare secondo me....al massimo avrei fatto un lst e basta senza defogliazioni.....sarei grato se mi daresti più info grazie

High prebiancagrower, No they have a normal size... They will start to flower soon and for that stretch for 3 weeks. You can use LST to bend them in the shape that you want! You can keep the braches and buds out of eachother and on the same height. To create a good airflow and let all the branches recieve the same amount of light from your lamp! Happy Growing! 😋

She does seem a LITTLE short (but not TOO short) and fairly dense. I would pull up your lights and make her stretch for it... She's also now in flower and you'll see her stretch a lot more if you let her by pulling up the lights and just having patience. Weed will stretch a lot during flower! I wouldn't worry about her! Good luck!
