They are fine give them time, maybe a few days should see them getting better, dont nute seedlings that's usually bad. Well the times I did even with the tinyist bit. How hot is your grow area?

My grow area is around 75-80 degrees fahrenheit lights on. at night around 70 degrees. My next watering I wont use nutes. thanks for the advice repped!
 
chill out a bit man they only babies they don't need nutes yet and let them dry out a little u have to go easy on them for first few week let th soil dry and just give em water ony when they need it when dry
hope this helped

They may look like babies but they are almost 4 weeks old I will update with pics probably tomm or tonight depending on how i feel, but they look dramatically different most of them are on there second node now I think that tender stage has passed and all though im not using nutes i think every third watering 1/4 strength nutes wont be too bad. since repotting i'm feeding every three days so they are holding moisture in the soil quite well and i try to mist lightly during the day when possible. Thanks for the advice repped!

LOL. Not to be a dick but you are making ever beginner mistake in the book. Overwatering, nutes too early, tin foil, too far of proximity from the bulbs, Poor ventilation. Fix these problems and you're good.

Seriously, keep growing though. It takes a little practice before you get good, and its good that you started off with a bunch of sprouts cause some will die and some will be male. Good luck man

Lemme tell you a little secret. The wrapping paper that has the shiny reflective backs is actually mylar so you could replace that foil with mylar is for wanted for 3 dollars. It'll pay for itself 10X in yield anyway.

Ok here is my update after receiving some really good advice from BongKong420 I added a lot more CFL lighting so now I have 8 Cfls and 2 flourescent tubes, I also removed all of the aluminum foiling and replaced it with mylar, hopefully this will speed up my ladies growth. Here are pictures and videos of the changes and you can see my girls have still been growing but just extremely slowly.

I also noticed some fungus growth on the soil I am going to need to address that problem soon.

My biggest girl is beginning to emanate some odor so I'm going to need to address that as well so it's not noticeable at all but when i get close i can definitely smell it.

as usual I welcome all comments and advice:weed:

Help!! I was looking at my plants today and i see tiny little mite looking bugs crawling around the soil what do i use to kill them? I've read that they tend to show up later in a grow any help would be appreciated before they do any damage to my ladies.

Plants are looking pretty nice keep it up.
Thanks a lot bro repped!

Here are new pictures my plants are now at 35 days old!!!!

Since i've added my new lights i'm seeing signifcant growth my plants aren't as big as other plants that i've seen but i'm just happy that there is some progress.

as always give me feedback.

today i plan :idea:on constructing a carbon filter setup due to the fact that my plants are starting to produce the all too:weed: familiar pungent odor. I want to get this done before the smell becomes unbearable.

Doesnt really matter that your plants are smaller than they should be... as soon as they are big enough for flower and you put them in bigger containers they will stretch just fine in flower mode:weed:

Thats good to know at least now i know that space wont be a problem because my greenhouse is only about 3 feet tall, what should i look for to know if my plant is ready for flowering?
