Why is it so small? Can I blossom?

Forty days and fifty days.
Is it possible to bloom?
I can't wait to turn to 12/12.
I don't know why plants grow very small.

HPS of 250W
LED of 100W

Not sure what you're doing wrong but if you tried to flower where they are now you'd wind up with a maximum of an ounce per plant after trim and cure. Maybe someone more knowledgable will help you out, but I'd anticipate your plants should be more than double the size after 7-8 weeks in veg...

Your lights are pretty high. I run a 400w HPS and I usually keep it around 10 inches from the top of the plants. Maybe try lowering it down an inch a day and see if they respond.

They don't look that crazy small for 40 days from seed by the way. It could just be a slow vegging strain or something.

Twenty days ago, twenty days later, it basically did not grow.

If these three are switched to 12/12 now

Can you harvest 3 ounces?

The two is the medical variety 1024.
The big fifty day is GG4.

Thank you
I'll reduce the lights. Now it's about 18 inches.
But I want to switch to 12/12 tomorrow.
He's too slow. I'm a bit worried.

It's very odd no they are very very small for 40 to 50 days from seed and it's two different strains, what are you using for soil? Have you fed them regularly? And yes your light could be lowered.

I use 50% of the local black soil, 10% earthworm, 10% perlite, 20% coconut shell.
Fertilizing a very small amount of base fertilizer two times

I can't speak for what you have there, but the only time I've had plants stall were in flower and it was because my bulbs needed replacing.

Nothing, at least in my opinion, beat's T5 HO's for veg. Been growing for almost 7 years and T5's never let me down.

I had some clones do that once. Didn't even try to bud them. Cut my losses and started some seeds. And it was the best two strains I've ever smoked. Still sad I let them go after a year of growing it perpetually...
...but yeah maybe something is up with that "local" dirt you got in there...maybe try repotting them or start over. Really that's all you can do.

Ready to switch to 12/12 tonight.
There is no way to accept this reality.
I can't wait.
Because I had no idea.
Thank you, everyone upstairs.

watering too much pots are too big stop spraying stuff on the leaves maybe too cold in the tent probably too low of nutrient feedings although plants look nice and green roots haven't expanded enough because puts are too big and the roots have no reason to grow because your probably keeping the medium too wet. just my thoughts
i wouldn't go putting a 200w hps at 10 inches as plants look compact already stick with 18 inches for that light
piss of the led for now and just use hps as it should be more then enough for them plants in that space at 18inches id say higher but its only 250w use the led when you flip to flower but in all honestly 100w of that crap led is bad and isnt really enough light
sorry to be an asshole but your using organic stuff what personally i think is dumb for indoor growing and will only promote slow ass growth. at 50 days from seed id expect my tent to be full and already 1 week in to flower
