Probably because you pruned most of the leaves off! Less leaves = less energy being made = less growth!

It’s the cultivar genetic. Some plants grows differently than others. Even with the same genotype you can get different phenotypes.

The lil guy: different strain or early flowering causing reduced height?
I really wonder how this guy can have so many flowers, while being half as tall as the two big ones? Maybe it started to flower early, or there was a mistake on SensiSeeds’ side and it’s a different strain?

Is This Auto Stunted?
Was worried about the size of her leaves - like I mentioned I think color & texture look good. I know humidity and temps weren't great during early stages. Could she be stunted? As of the last update plant is 31 days above soil.

Will my plant recover from slow growth?
It looks like my plant got stunted because too much rain/cloudy weather/bugs... is there any chance she will be recovering in the next weeks growing a little more? She has just ended her 6th week out of 12 estimated ones!

Slow Growing Seed ? Will she be okay if I flower her do you think she will beef up ? I plan on flowering her in 5 days.
Hi Guys the plant front right please look over the diary and can you work out why she is the only slow one ? My first guess is that it's just a slow seed ? I cannot see any problems with her what so ever maybe you guys can see something I'm missing ? I took some large fans off

Stunted growth?
Do my plants look small for the end of week 2? Have messed around with the lights far too much, switching from MH to HPS then finally to LED because of heat problems.

Plant healthy?
Unfortunately I resolved the previous post: Can anyone tell me if this lady is healthy? She started good but then leaf 3 startet to struggle same as leaf 4 now. I am using only a 6W LED in a short distance. What to do if it is overwatered/building roots at the stem?

Help my plants to recover and thrive :)
Coco grow: seedlings started to droop. Maybe caused by over watering? During transplant I found out the roots were completely underdeveloped. The transplant shocked the plants. Growth is stunted. What can I do to get them to recover and thrive? Consult my diary for more details.

My auto seedlings are short, is the light too close or is it the temperature?
So I’m running the spider farmer SF 2000 LED. great in the summer as it puts off very little heat. Winter time here in Seattle now and my wife won’t let me turn the heat up to past 70. My seedlings are in great soil with domes, but think the temp is stunting them. Suggestions?
