HELP WITH MY VERY FIRST GROW
Elemental
started grow question 3y ago
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?

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.

Are these autos stunted?
Maybe I'm just being paranoid where this is my first grow but these girls are at day 20 from sprouting and are only about 3 inches from the soil. I did pick off the first 2 sets of nodes and feed them a little bit of recharge about 3 days ago.

Willing doming this stunted plant help it recover from its early trauma? I have attached photos of progress from the past 2 weeks
This journal has become an experiment in the resilience of this plant. When it was 2 days old I water and washed the germinated seed out of the peat pod, and have been trying to allow it to recover at its own pace which it has been, but is very stunted and behind it sisters.

Should I keep the OG Kush
Should I keep the OG Kush, for 16 days she still looks tiny. Is she can develop to full plant or I should let her go and keep focus on GC and Gelato

Should she be taller as an Autoflower? - day 18 10 cm
So I know auto-flowers grow short, but she's still about 10cm tall and smashing lateral growth Do any auto-flower growers know when the height starts to come? I'd be worried she was stunted if it wasn't for the new node forming quickly once again looking for reassurance

Height of plant
All 3 of my plants are different sizes. Next time I’m only gonna grow one strain at a time unless there’s a way to speed up the growth of the other two. I have a yellow spectrum light I was using for veg that I can put on the left of my grow tent & then put the flowering light?

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?
