Slow growth, growing up but not bushy

Hi growers - after some help with my white widow. Almost 3 weeks in (around 17 days) and it seems to be growing really slowly. She's grown relatively tall (about 12cm) but isn't getting bushy like I've seen other grows do. Any advice?

Well, you don't indicate anything about the distance between the plant and the light so I'm not understanding where my growmies are coming up with their advice about it... What I've found to be the answer to slow growth at this stage (or at ANY stage, really) is the VPD.... google VPD charts and see what the ideal temp/humidity range should be for the age of your plants... The first time I stumbled upon this advice and used it, my plants just took off - it's as if they were saying "well, thank GOD you figured THAT one out, stupido!" .... but not seeing any information on humidity, you're going to have to be the one who figures out whether this is an issue or not. You're also getting to the point in the grow where you might want to introduce a low dose of nutrients... if these are autoflowers, start them off with 1/4 strength... if they're photoperiods, start them off with 1/2 strength... Good luck! - oh, and have some patience! They're actually looking pretty good and their height is concurring with me... but I'll bet the VPD will help a lot!

The main food is the light lower the light closer to the plant not too close so u won't burn the plant Download the PPFD Mater app set the light high perfectly and u will see the growth of your plant 😊😉 The seedling stage is 100-300 PPFD The veg stage is 400-600 Flowering stage 800-1000 without CO2 For you right now u need 100-300 PPFD Do this and enjoy watching her grown 🤩
