Plant too small

Nothing is doom and gloom here. probably the concrete of a medium used. More perlite or similar would help. Avoid the soils with big chunks of wood chips or anything else that size. overwatering - either running so much water through it it drowns the roots annd the plant droops or too freequently watering which raises risk of root rot. This really should never be a concern. The only reason it'd be a concern is if someone isn't adhering to well-established irrigation practices.. 1) full saturate (absolutely not over-watering). 2) wait for appropriate dryback and repeat. In this soil showns, wait for 1" deep to dry before repeating... loss of weight is a better trigger. Simple. If it's soilless, you simply add 10% runoff religiously each time and fertilize every time. If you are choosing a volume of water to provide off the top of your head, you are doing it wrong. You give the volume that gets the job done as outlinded by the simple 1-step process above - fully saturate. Partial watering leads to problems, too. nutrients are nutrients, more times than not. Give the right ratio and concentration and the plant remains healthy, yes. use size-appropriate pots for better growth rates. Big pot, tiny plant results in wonky watering practices. The plant may have been concentrating more on the rootzone than above ground growth.

Hey 420daddy! Looking at the photos , your plant is indeed a bit on the small side for week 3. This often happens if the roots are struggling with the soil environment or if the light intensity isn't quite dialed in yet. There is definitely still a chance for her to catch up, but you shouldn't wait two weeks to start providing light nutrients; she looks like she could use a small boost now to kickstart that vegetative growth. Focus on keeping your watering consistent don't let the soil get bone dry, but avoid soaking it and make sure your light is at the right distance to encourage stretching without burning. Happy Growimg 🌱

Spot on might of been slow getting roots in but the speed should take off now I can feel in my blood brother

Looks ok, a little slow but it will be ok. I would let her get a little bit of sleep though. Good luck!

hi Growmie😎 Alles sieht top aus👍 weiter so !😎 viel Glück

Damn, haven’t seen blurple lights in ages. Lack of proper lights is why it’s that small. If you can’t switch for something better then that light needs to be closer to the plant. Also, what are you feeding it? After 3 weeks that soil is pretty much done, needs fertiliser.

Everything is fine working on the root system.
