Elemental

I would like to know if my plants are too small or even smaller than should it be... 18 days, since they woke up from the land, in my opinion they are a little thin, short and with a few leaves. Anyone could give me some help?

Are my plants short? Please I need help and advice. Thank you!
Hello everybody, this is my first grow so that's why i have so many doubts. One guy told me that my plants are short for being 6 weeks old. They are 6 weeks old since they started to germinate. Do you think they should be bigger? What do you think I did wrong? Thank you!

Is my plant too small (in week 4) to get a decent yield next month?
Should I worry about the length of the plant at this time? I'm now halfway week 5 and it's about 25cm, but it's hard to believe this will still double in size in the next 2 weeks, assuming lenght growth will stop or slow once flowering starts.

Stunted growth?
Hey fellow growers, im coming into week 7 and she's starting to flower, but compared to others growing the same I feel she should be bigger or further along than she is. Temp is around 25° humidity 37-50, ph is 5.35. Using shogun npk. Am I doing something wrong?

Smaller plant stunted?
Is the little lady of these two stunted or just going slower due to different strain maybe? They are the same age. Does anyone notice any type of deficiencies

Why are my 1 gallon container plants bigger than the 5 gallon container plants? 12" in the 5 gallons and 17" in the 1 gallons? What am I doing wr
Why are they growing slowly? I have 6 plants total. 4 in this tent and 2 in another smaller tent. The ones in the smaller tent are in 1 gallon fabric containers and get the same bottom feed wick system as the 5 gallon ones in this tent. Why are the 1 gallon bigger? Thanks!

Are these going to flower in 2 weeks? :/
These are Autos, so theoretically I'm at half of the vegetative stage (day 14). I think they stopped growing because of low temps (around 10°C durind day). Is this going to flower in 2 weeks also if the dimensions remain these? :/

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)

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?

Container to increase air humidity
I'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?

Is she a runt?
Would my front cbd crack (Urbie) be considered a "runt"? Or is she a nice size? She's identically topped to the one in the back corner with the blue name stake. Same time planting, same everything. Thanks.

Same strain, different color leaves.
Why my plants have leaves with different colors (one is darker) when they are the same strain? Both grew with the same fertilizers and while they had issues in early veg. they recovered but developed quite differently! It's the phenotype? Or the issues in early veg. caused this?

Showing pistils but Where's the colas?
Hi all, My plant seems very short at 8th wk. 6 wks 18/6 2wks 12/12. I water once a week w/nutes in 5gal fabric pot and mix of ffhf soil, coco, ewc, perlite. Should I be watering more to get her to stretch her colas? Even though still damp @ 3/4 way down? Thanks and Happy Growing.
