Possible Stunted growth on White Widow Auto fem seedlings

Gavin2288 · Feb 15, 2020

How long is too long for seedlings to start there 2nd node or even start seeing a growth tip. I used a propagation dome with root blocks to start, day 2 they were 3 inch tall. Planted 2 straight into a 5ltr coco pre prepped medium annnnnnd they have done fuck all since lol. 2 weeks with no change. They look healthy, plump leaves, don’t consider myself to be overwatering. I have a heat mat and brass saucer which works nicely. Temp 20c humidity 70% ish. Lights 3 12 inch blue led 35 watt hanging 25cm above. Have tried root stimulator. All the gear no idea lol ? Please is there any wise words of wisdom ? First grow here.

I’m worried they spent a day too long in the dome and got big too quick ?

It's hard to tell with the purple light, but they seem to be OK for the most part. I'm not sure how much light they are getting. I have had some seeds stall shortly after sprouting, for a few weeks. I dug it out and discovered that it had a pretty decent root system, so I put it back. Afterwards, it started growing like crazy and caught up to the others. Some strains seem to develop roots prior to growing much. Keep us in the loop, but as long as they aren't misshapen, falling over, or dying they are probably OK.
Keep in mind that light is fuel for plants. A 35 watt light doesn't put out too much energy... and often the wattage ratings are made up. I would recommend getting a larger light, I think that is needed to get things moving.

I forgot to add, I have a 75w cool white lamp for heat also. It’s a micro grow which I was hoping to give LST. Only a 2x2x2 miningrow tent so I have restrictions with height.
