Short Plants taking Forever to Grow

[euphoria526]

keep it up, hopefully its just transplant shock and they will get back to normal growth :fingers crossed)
I had 1 of 4 stunted from a transplant shock recently, then it caught up with the rest within a week or so. you say you transplanted on 12/12? just keep up watering, weighing the bags, and feeding when necessary.

Looks like they just need time and maybe a light upgrade unless that’s one of them new fancy COB true spec led that actually look like a blurp for whatever reason.

The blurp has been brought up a couple times, I have one to and I think my plants are extremely slow.

1. I see CFL's can be used for seedlings and Veg growth.
2. Pretty sure a TS 1000 Mars Hydro for 4 seedlings.
3. Plus TS 1000 power use is overkill @ 4 plants.

Looking for alternatives Seedling and Veg times.

I just got my ts1000 in and it’s working just fine, I started everything with a ts600 and it germinated and everything with no probs. I had a coco grow with a custom blurp that was only a 115w but starting off it was super slow but once it got into veg it worked for the most part didn’t get a chance to see the flowering cycle since the plant turned male and I killed it.

What size is your veg space, and is this also your flower space?

I think it’s cold roots get your pots up off cold floor creat an ai gap under them warmer dryer roots aids in plant health . Regards OD.

These seeds were planted on November 13. They are maybe 4-5 inches tall. I dont know what's going. Growing with ffof and a yehsence light in a 4x2. Temps 74-81. RH 51-61%.

How much molases are you using per gal..

Od i think is right. Air gap get them off the cold floor...as roots will grow slow along with the plant...

Also make sure your water temps are around 70.

Molases at 1 tbsp per 3 to 5 gallons is what you want...too much can muck up the soil...blurple lights are a fad more than anything imo...some people think not! Your temps and hum look good!!

Tc
Happy growing

Slow growth is likely in relationship to the planting date. Planting on Friday the 13th renders many complications. I recommend starting over.

much love

5 gallon pot bud. Transplanting from a little cup to a 5 gal or starting in a 5 gallon is fine but the plant will often spend a bunch of time growing roots expanding into all that soil before prioritizing above ground growth.

Lol. My bad. I totally should have understood that. Thanks for explaining for me

...Are they regular or Auto? If Auto's they could be runts.
I germed about 60 auto seeds from good seedbanks,
and the amount of runts and dead seed was shocking.
Total waste of money,time & effort.
Hacked to Death..

No they're photoperiod.

4x2. I will be using it for flower as well.

Long skinny quantum board will be killer in that space.

Growing in soil and from seed takes some patience. On top of that it looks like you have a blurple led which causes them to grow more leafy and compact. They look healthy and thats whats really important.
