    Too Small (Stunted?)

    I guess that is possible. But, I imagine slow growth like this is a sign that something is not right. These are hybrids and should act like it. If they continue like this, I don't doubt that they will veg and flower, but the yield will be very disappointing for the amount of effort expended...

    I think I will send some of these pictures to the seed company and ask their opinion. I will let you know what they say.

    Too Small (Stunted?)

    I can only see the top roots if I move some of the hydroton away and they are white and fuzzy. Here are some pictures of them as they near five weeks-

    Res change every week. PH is stable, the GH Flora three part has PH buffers that keep it fairly steady at 6-6.5. I'm really grasping at straws.

    Thanks again email. The light is only 18 / 6 - The bulb is generic, HTGSupply - 400 Watt HPS 55k Lumens supposedly 10% brighter then standard HPS bulbs with increased blue/violet spectrum -- it is new.

    Yeah, I've just about reached the end of my rope with these plants. They are nearing five weeks and are still growing very slowly. Still green, still growing, still too slow. There must be some environmental factor I'm just completely missing. I've adjusted the light -- no good. I've...

    best medium for ebb and flow

    If you want to move your plants easily then I think rock wool is your best option. There really is no need to have hydroton in the ebb/flow if you are using rock wool for the entire grow. In fact, I wouldn't want my roots to grow from the rock wool into the hydroton if I planed on moving them...

    Thanks russ0r. Did you spot a deficiency? They look very green to me, and I am afraid to increase the nutes and burn them. Looking closely I see some signs of the plants struggling to cope with the nute levels since going to 1/2 on Sunday. They will be good by the looks of it, but to...

    Week Four: Everything is exactly the same except now nutes are at 1/2 instead of 1/4 strength for seedlings. (GH Flora three part) Yep, they are very small for four weeks. They look very healthy as well - sucks, but, haven't found anything to encourage faster growth. They just keep going...

    Too Small (Stunted?)

    Thanks email - G.H. Flora - The Three Part Solution - right now I am using the FloraMicro and FloraGrow, I started with 1/4 strength for seedlings and just now I changed the res and went to 1/2 strength for seedlings. (A little less then 1/2 for seedlings actually) The plants should already...

    Too Small (Stunted?)

    Thanks guys -- I think I will leave the lighting as is. Although I see the logic in your posts, it is possible and even good to grow from beginning to end with an HPS. I started the seedlings at 3.5' from the HPS and have slowly lowered it to where it is now. The plants are not burning or...

    Interesting, you and I are growing the same strain and our plants look nothing alike -- https://www.rollitup.org/grow-journals/36702-chewys_grow_afghan_kush.html I like the CFL set up -- not because I like CFL's, but because your set up looks very clean -- awesome job!
