Any help is appreciated. switched them from solo cup to these pots around week 2. The transfer on the gelato wasnt great. Hence the stunted growth.

Organic bacto soil

Temps have been 77-82

Humidity 39% - 45%

Light cycle 18/6

light is 3 foot away from plants

250watts. ran at 20% week 1
40% week 2 & 3
50% halfway thru week 4

There’s no pertlite & the soil looks clumpy
Next time or when you transplant add some as it will help with drainage the roots being able to breathe & overall root health

Humidity is low for new plants. VDP is high for new plants.

Hey thanks for the reply. Any humidifier recommendations? Cracked a window for now humidity is at 75 outside hoping it’ll help bring that up a bit.

Grow Weed Easy - Learn How to Grow Cannabis with Simple Tutorials

Growing weed can be easy, though some marijuana grow tutorials make it seem like you need a degree in horticulture. Learn how to plant a seed & start growing with as little time and effort as possible, or read our advanced tutorials for monstrous yields!
www.growweedeasy.com

Basic research for growing weed is available on that web site and right here.
At the top of the header are 3 horizontal bars. Click and it takes you to a menu where you can explore the site. Before I dropped my first seed I read about 50 diaries and journals from start to finish. You can watch a day to day progression of a grow to learn what to expect and what the guardrails are to successful growing.
When someone answers you pay attention to the following. Male sure you understand the difference between:
At this age in my tent humidity was at 65% and temp was at 78.
Vrs :
Seedling and early veg recommendations are from 75-65 %
The reason the answers are different is because the lanes for growing pot are large and my tent works for my strain and age and nutes. There is not enough information in most help requests for a detailed answer. I know this will be frustrating looking for information and help sometimes so basically research and a plan for germination, seedling, veg, flower, nutrition, lights and every other aspect is recommended.
Good luck with your grow.

Humidity raising is much easier than humidity lowering for me. I started with a home humidifier in the tent on an inkbird control box. It would not control the humidity very well. I have a thermoforge and a cloud forge by ACI for environment control. It can raise the temp to 105 degrees at 94% and down to 66 degrees and 45%.
Vivosun makes humidifiers for app control and I recently bought one for use in a drying tent and for a second grow tent option.
It can be difficult to get a stable and in range humidity for low cost as what you need to move is based on what you have. My basement cost $400 bucks with a huge dehumidifier in the basement and a smaller one in the room with transfer fans between the room and the rest of the basement.
