Put more details and pics for them. There is alot of reasons this could occur, do yourself a favor and just upload a pic for 'em. Mine were stunted first grow due to few diff reasons, pot size was only inch or two deep, needed bigger one; didn't pH water was watering seedling with r/o and harsh tap, temps were ok but I imagine that could cause slowed growth ect ect.
 
My pot size is currently like an or 2 deep right now and ill be transplanting them when i get money for soil which should be like 2-4 days

pH of water? How often watering, temperature? I am still on first grow but I'm sure you need to give them more then 'why is it happening got all things right' what medium/pot size? pretty much some of the questions I was asked when asking same type of question around diff forums.

edit: nvm I see your reply.


Might be better for you to move over to newbie section
It's a tad bit more friendly to beginners, and I stress only a 'tad'.

Well...it could be you're over watering, it could be you don't have the right kelvin lights, it could be bad soil, it could be cuz you're a noob..lol..more info buddy

Doin great man and you? And by the way, don't let your water set for too long, it looses oxygenation, 24 hours is plenty or put a fish tank bubbler in it...I can't think of the word I'm looking for...short term memory loss..lol
 
Doin great man and alright thanks for that tip and short term memory loss i think its just too much gangja haha but i also read that you can flower right from seed or 2-3 weeks into veg i was thinking of trying that since i dont really care about yield aince this is my first grow whats your opinion on that

Dude 10-11 days dont expect much they are building a root system. They have to finish germination stage before seedling. And if theres other issues like PH then yeah its gonna slow growth too They are plants not magical pot stalks :roll:
 
Yah germination was done awhile ago been planted for 11 days i was just saying cause ive seen others twice as tall as mine on the same day bases

Some are different then others, has the PH been maintained? I'm sure in the next week it'll start to explode with growth
 
I agree it is quite shallow and i have to trabsplant it soon just dont have the money for soil atm and idk the ph dont have a ph meter im a youngin growin in my attic so money is pretty tight for me and your probably right in a week or to itll explode in growth

Ya I've done a few beans straight 12/12, and while the smoke was fine the yield wasn't much, about an O per plant but, you can get that in 3 months or less, depends on the strain and how fast it matures, good learning in it though
 
I dont mind a small yield im only growing cause i moved and its hard to find new straight suppliers an o a plant is fine ive been vegin for about 10 days for my oldest and started 12/12 tonight at 10 how long did it take for staright 12/12 for your till harvest like 7 weeks?

Yep that too, but I've been building a new server, and it's kicking my ass :wall: but I'm almost done.... I'm a network admin for a local medical facility, love my job, especially the pay :hump: and I usually only work around 20 hours a month...lol...except, when this shit comes up from corporate, then it's balls to the walls to get r' dun...

from the moment you start 12/12..nope..lol..when they start doing this 009.jpg you have about 8-9 weeks or when the trichs are all milky and starting to turn amber
