Are My Plants To Small?

[spyderaz]

These a little on the small side, could it be because they are under CFL'S?

 

[kansabis]

How old are they? Since they broke ground and first set of leaves established?

 

[DemonTrich]

How long since it popped up? What strains, medium, temp, rh?

She is stretching a bit. Move the light a tad closer as long as the heat isn' too much.

 

[kansabis]

Yeah leaves are reaching up for that light,cfls will work start to finish,my first 3 grows were with cfls and turned out better than expected,at that size I'd put the light around 12 inches from the top and the older it gets keep lights as close as possible without burning your plants,mine was usually 2-3 inches but airflow across canopy helps alot.

 

[spyderaz]

If i put the lights any closer they will be touching the plants.

The temp is around 28°c, strain is Kalashnikov and they broke ground 2 weeks ago

Well first off...

What wattage are your CFLs? Are you sure they're daylight?

When it comes to distance on CFLs the only enemy is heat. I've grown with CFLs within an inch of my plants but I had insane air flow directly over the bulb itself to get it that way. The closer the better as long as you know what your actual surface temps are.

Edit- And for 2 weeks it certainly could be bigger but it also is on par with a couple I grew out this last run at that stage. Had one that was that size at a month and then I chucked it.

Primary productivity (growth) is a function of photosynthetic capacity.
As soon as you get enough leaf surface area out there, growth will pick up.
I think it looks good.

@spyderaz whats your soil mix consisting of? I see perlite and coco fibers, anything else in the mix?

Kalashnikov haha havent heard that one in awhile grew that strain about 10 yrs ago

More goes on under ground that early on. Perhaps it could already be time to up pot?

Seems like the first month from seed the plant is just chillin. But it's actually building a root base. Your plant looks good for 2 weeks. Another 2 weeks it will blow up. Looking good I think.

2x 300w dual.

It' 10/1 mix of terra and perlite

There isn't much of a root base in any of them

Add more and better light.
