HELP WITH MY VERY FIRST GROW
Elemental

Why is my girl so bushy and how to make her stretch? Thanks!
Hi guys, so she's 29 days old. I feel like light and air can't get in, she's covering her new growth with her big fat fan leaves. I don't think it has to do with distance to the light because I tried being 40cm above and now 75cm, she just keeps growing wider, DLI 25 ~ 15k LUX 😽

What do you think?
I think I made some mistakes like: Windburn, Too much stress, High TDS. My questions are: Do you guys thing their buds will fatten enough? Will the plants get any taller? (I still see little stretching) I think Mold is gonna appear because the buds are close one to the other.

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!

Why is my plant growing extremely slowly?
This is my first Propperty grow and the photo is after almost 4 weeks of growth, I’ve been giving nutes in reasonable doses and the first 2 and a half weeks was mostly cloudy and rainy but since then it’s been sunny, did the cloudy start affect it that much? And what should I do?

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)

Going coco with coco coir!
How often should coco be watered? Some people say every day some people say wait till coco dries up a bit, then water? Been watering every 3-4 days and ive had all kinds of deficiencies. Not sure if it’s from the amount of nutes I use or I just don’t water often ? going coconuts

Stunned Growth or just slow?
Does my Gorilla Cookies auto have stunned growth or is this okay that she grows so slowly? She probably had some nutrition burnt, maybe it slowed her a little bit..=( Pic1 — 04.11(3d day after germination) Pic2 — 14.11 (13th day)

Just an opinion
Do you have any suggestions? Am I doing right in your opinion? I think I've overwatered her a little bit once and I had also nutrients problems (mag and cal, I solved adding more AN Bloom Part A)

Size of Auto at end of Week 3
I know genetics is a big factor, but these are suppose to be Sativa dominant 70/30, and they seem to be so short, even the LST sprouts are only a couple inches. When do autos typically take-off and produce some distance between nodes or are these stunted?

Thoughts?
Should I be concerned or do something differently? The plants all seem to be very small height wise, but otherwise doing well.

Droopy leaves, curling at tips, and now brown/yellow splotches on leaves in DWC. Not sure what the issue is
Unfortunately, I can only write so much here, but I have a lot more details in my grow diary. The droopiness started about 3-4 days ago, but now has started showing deficiencies in the leaves, and plants seem stunted on height. Day 19 since sprout.

Anyone used the Phlizon Cree COB 2000w lights? I’m running two in a 8’x4’ under a scrog net. 5 weeks into veg but nowhere near where they should be. Used only the COBs in veg as some suggested but had to put on full blast today and hope for some speedy growth before I flower them

PREFLOWER or PARANOID!?!?!?
As this is my first grow i just want to get other opinions and be more confident but i believe that this plant is starting to preflower... correct? Plants are at day 23 from seed but seem to be stunted from what i think was high light intensity during the first few days of life.
