hey peeps!!
SO here is the scoop:
I DONT KNOW WHAT STAGE I AM AT WITH THIS PLANT. THE BOTTOM LEAVES ARE DEAD (ONLY THE SMALL OVAL AND FIRST SET THAT INITIALLY COME UP) AND THE REST OF THE PLANT IS VERY HEALTHY BUT JUST GROWING REALLY SLOWLY. THERE ARE MANY OTHER LEAVES SPROUTING UP IN BETWEEN ALL OF THE NODES. THE PLANT IS ONLY ABOUT 9" TALL BUT VERY FULL. HOW MUCH LONGER BEFORE I DO THE LIGHT AT 12/12 FOR FLOWERING.
DETAILS:
6 100w cfl's LEFT ON 24 HOURS A DAY
mixture of miracle grow and 4 year old compost soil (awesome combo)
ph - 7.0
watering with perfect ro water every 3 days when soil is dry
plant is about 6 weeks old
good air flow
NICE PUSSY!!

I flower mine between 9-14 inches. Depending on your space, now or in a couple inches would be good imho.

Something looks like it is stunting the growth so I completely agree with HotNSexyMILF

to give you an idea - here is a plant that is half the age (three weeks old) to give you an idea of scale - it is in a 6" net pot:

I'm thinking root bound. My baby stopped at about that stage when she got root bound, that was at like week 2/3 though...

To be honest, i thought you hit the nail on the head in your last post HotNSexyMILF - lights. But since i don't use CFLs i don't know for sure.

What Should I Do. The Plant Looks Really Healthy And The Nodes Are Close Togather. I Know I Have Good Lighting Good Ph Excellant Water Good Air Flow And Awesome Soil. The Space Its Growing In Is About 5'l X 3'w X 9'h.
Its Wierd Because Every Couple Of Days She Has A Growth Spirt But Overall Its Just Taking Way Too Long To Grow. So Should I Start With The 12/12 Now?

Sounds like the plant has used most of the nuts that were in the soil. Transplanting to a bigger pot with new soil (same mix) will probably get them going again. If not that, you would need to feed them some nutes.

Sorry justintime4420 - not really answering your question was I?

I would continue to grow them. I would grow them until they reached their max veg height before flowering them.

It can be a whole host of reasons why ur growth is slowed.
6 wks...9" at that rate of growth its gona take you 3 yrs and 2 months
to grow that bitch out :)
I'd put the plant aside and get to work on new seedlings.

i dont have air blowing in from the outside just air flowing around on the inside. the box is not totally sealed, it has a gap at the top about 4ft long and 4" tall. temp around 77. also running a hydro unit but the leaves on that started out huge. the leaves on the hydro are about 6 times the size of the leaves on this girl when it first started out. same seeds.
