# 1 i have been growing my plant for 1 entire month and its short!! whats going on? i have lots of lights and i have put some fans but the plant doesnt seem to be reaching for the light. idk if its bcuz the lights are too close but i moved em away just by an inch and the plant is still tilting to the left but i havent put any lightbulbs on the left for it to be tilting in that direction. i have big gro and tiger bloom and i have used it twice so far. here is a pic of the plant i am talking about. i transplanted her into this big (3-4gallon pot) 3days ago and also moved her into a bigger grow box. grow box temp is at 85 degrees Celsius.

#2 my second plant is now acting weird as well. the leaves are curling downwards and i noticed this when i used big grow and big bloom. i will transplant her today because she has been in this cup 3 wks today. im guessing she needs more room and hopefully that will promote more growth. any tips are welcomed. i want to mk sure i am doing everything correct. here is a pic of her poor leaves

# 3 this one speaks for itself. i dont know what happened to this one. she was hiding under the big one so i moved her and she grew a tiny bit but no progress yet

Okay well to be honest, I have seen worse progress for a month into a grow. Yours isn't to bad. Also, what spectrum are your lights because one of them seems to be 2700K? Next, on that second plant, you are feeding it nutes?!?!?! Why?!?!? Its wayyyyy to young. And how far along is the third?

well keep the 27 watt bulbs they are around 2700 k go get 42 watt bulbs they are around 6500 k those other bulbs arent strong enough. the big one seems more indica dominate. also never give plants nutes till its at least a month old besides that your on track. dont give any nutes for about a month. and you want to give plants nutes about every 20 days at 1/4 strength. ive had good results on that feeding schedule.

lights look fine but how much space do you have to work with your plant will get inbetween double the size for a indica and triple for a sativa meaning size in height

So far their looking good but to get the most out of your CFL's the closer you put them the better. Get them as close to the plant as you can without the leafs getting burn marks. am using a pc for my grow so you will be fine with height am assuming.
