Hey guys my plants are 3.5 weeks old but this week they seemed to have stoppes growing. They look good. Ive deffo not overwatered. Ph is going in and coming out ok. I had some white fly issues early on but i havent found any recently after a homemade washing solution and neem oil. They are outdoors, do they still have hope? Maybe just slow starters. I was expecting at least new leaves once a week. And with the good old outdoors i thought they would boost with fresh air
The first pics are today, and the rest over the past week.

Any ideas guys?
Thanks :)View attachment 278IMAG1200.jpgIMAG1199.jpgIMAG1198.jpgIMAG1197.jpgH]9624[/ATTACH]IMAG1204.jpg

Green house seed co powder feed. They have only had a very light feed at 2 weeks and this one today with nutes. Flushed properly with phd water inbetween. Thanks

temp change from indoors to outside ?
they may very well just be slow starters
when you say first leaves the round ones or the single petal ?

The first little round ones sorry they just turned yellow then died. They have been outside since they sprouted. I potted them right into their finished pots so there would be no transplant issues. Temps are between 25-32 during the day. I have been moving them around a lot so they get the best of the light during the day about 6 direct sunlight, the rest in shade. Also been leaving them to rest outside at night. I should note these are autos if it makes any diffetence??

Being they are outdoors depending on what hemisphere you live in would help a little. If you're in the north part of your problem is your actually growing in flower season so it's the same as growing 12/12 from seed inside. How long has it been outside? It does look as if it needs some N. Which is for veg. growth. You might want to get a little clamp light with a splitter and a couple CFL's daylight bulbs and light it up for a couple of weeks once it starts getting dark to keep it in veg mode for a little longer and the combination should jump start you after a couple of days. IMO

Thanks guys i actually asked the fella at the grow shop if i should mix it up a little have them 6 hours direct sunlight then bring them inside and put them under an enviro for 6 but he said the constant change would only stress them that for the benefit of the plant it would have to be one or the other. Lights or sun?

They look hungry...why did you make the statement that they were "flushed" between feedings? What did you mean by that?
You're only giving them 12 hours of light daily? That's probably why they're growing so slowly

Flushed with phd water. I take them out and give them water i dont let them sit in the left over water. Even then im so paranoid of over feeding they have only had a few flushes. But not left out to dry.

Just now am i wrong to think they look happy lol

I am happy to buy a light if this seems to be the prob. Can you advise on what cycle i should have them that will cause the least amount of stress. I have other babies germinating just now so i want to make sure i have a good working cycle going. Thanks guys

A plant needs over 14 hours of light to stay in veg. Your plant is going straight to flower. What I said was to light it up where it's at when the sunsets. You are growing 12/12 from seed as it is and your plant will only get maybe 5-6 inches taller if you don't give it more light. You will only get about an 8th ounce of smoke. If you look in the outdoor forums you will see lots of outside growers do this to keep their plants in veg to get bigger plants. Not everybody in a grow store can properly grow MJ and they don't know all of your circumstances.IMO Here's 1 of mine this year.023.jpg

If you go get a cheap clamp light with a splitter so you can put a couple of daylight Cfls and light it up for a couple of hours at sunset you will see improvements within a couple of days. The whole thing should cost under $15 from lowes or H.D. You want 18/6 roughly to veg then 12/12 when you are ready to flower(or just quit lighting it up). Most plants need about 2 months veg time for it to mature before flowering in genral but you will want to take your weather into consideration.PEACE

The powder feed from ghsc should be very user friendly and it def works. I ran a couple runs with it, was very impressed. The finished product burned so nice!

I used my ec meter until I was comfortable with the levels and where they would be ec wise. Once I got that down it was keep it simple to say the least. I run advanced nutrients as my main nutes but the results I received from the powder feed were very close if not a little better. It's just to order it and have to pay customs shit because they tore the package to kingdom come makes it annoying. It still makes it to your doorstep but its like a 25 dollar customs charge.

It was very nice though, to have one bag of nutes for all my plants no bottles no mixing no relentless bending over. Just powder ph it and water girls. It's cheap too price wise!
