Stunted?

Hoping to get some advice. Below are pics of day 18 (from seed) she looks a bit stunted compared to the usual I see on here. Is there any hope to get her exploding above the surface before she starts flowering? I intend to go through to harvest no matter the result

Looks fine - not stunted. Probably the large pot, tiny plant context is slowing it down... It's probably focusing on roots trying to find limits of the substrate volume. Once it kicks into gear it probably won't be too far behind if you compare at 4-5 weeks out to a plant that was potted up properly, but you also have the pains of watering a tiny plant in a large pot and the elevated risks that brings to the equation for no reason. Always better to use size-appropriate pots and pot-up as needed. This should never shock a plant unless someone pulls out the GI Joe Kung Fu Grip (tm) on the rootball. Don't ask a toddler or someone off the short-bus to do it and you'll be fine.

Give it more time. If the soil is depleated your growing in it will stay small but your on track.

Da es ein Outdoor Grow ist wird sie langsamer am Anfang wachsen, denn ich vermute sie wird nicht direkt 18 Stunden licht haben wie beim Indoor, und auch nicht vle intensität von morgens bis abends, bei mir sind die Pflanze im Outdoor im Schnitt 5 bis 8 Tage langsamer am Anfang als im Zelt. Sie werden aber später größer und schneller wachsen. Wenn du sie richtig versorgest. Noch sehen sie in Ordnung aus viel erfolg

She looks good. I bet she will spurt soon.. mine was very slow until third or forth leaf pair. Good luck
