3 weeks old-stopped growing about a week ago..WHAT'S WRONG???

3 power saving lights 23 W each
Don't know what kind of weed
I don't use any vents
Only once i used nutrients 6-3-6 about 3 days ago
The first one it's a little bit yellow at the end of the 2 biggest leafs...

The soil i used had nutes in it...time released. I know nitrogen toxicity can cause "slow growth" although i dont see any other symptoms of that yet. Mine started the same...slow growth and then started having other problems later on.

From what I've read, they don't need nutes for a month. I added after 3 weeks and the same thing happened

While i can't offer advice on why it has stopped growing, maybe in the period where it has stopped growing, go an do some research on growing cannabis. There is no way that you should be giving something that small any doseage of nutes. Unneeded and unwanted.

i only gave them half of doseage of the nutes requiered and i used liquid nutes...so it's almost nothing...it's disturbing that they grew up so fast and then from a week to another nothing happened. What should i do guys?

Same thing happened to me, seedlings don't need nutes at all. Flush it.

Totally agree, it is really plant size that should determine when it starts getting nutes. Usually somewhere in the 2-4 week range and depends on what soil they are in too. They do not look near the size where it would be needed IMO.

I would guess flushing and then letting them dry out really well before any watering is a good idea. I have never flushed a plant though, I use supersoil and feed very lightly.

Also, do you know what your temps are? They should be above around 72 and below around 83...

looks stretched, so maybe the lights to high above the plant, needs to be 1-2" above the plant

Temperature :around 75-80.
Humidity : 40-50% allways.
And i think i overwatered...that's why the grow process is stunted..because my soil molded a little bit on the surface other days and i didn't took clear pictures with the soil.

flushing soil that contains slow release ferts will cause more nutes to be released making any potential problems much worse.

also if you really dont have an idea where those came from, you might really be wasting your time. just telling ya from my experience, well it was a good learning experience. = ) find better seeds and do it better! itll save you alot of everything.

but i can glimpse how you feel. if i was in your situation, i would flush it with ph'd water and leave it alone. gluck! its hard, but better to just cut your minimal losses

What kind of whater should i use to flush? Tapwater or distiled? Because i used distiled water till now. Tomorrow i will plant some skunk automatic seeds and i hope it will grow better...

Nutes pretty early . . Remember roots b4 shoots

yea just use distilled for now, try to pick up some phdown and just use alittle to get it to 6.5, your gonna need it for your skunk anyways and its good practice.

i don't know how to adjust the water ph and i don't have a ph-metter anyway....I've heard that i can adjust the ph with some chemicals but i don't know how and i must buy something to verify my ph ...i watered my plants only with distiled wather and i didn't know that i must add something in that water, I taught that distiled water have 6.2 ph and it's good as it is for my plants...

Looks pretty good, make sure your lettin the soil dry out between waterings over water will def slow down growth, also I wouldn't use distiller without a micro supplement you'll run into problems eventually

It's ok if I use baked soda and vinegar to adjust the PH or should I use other substances?

Yikes! That is one lanky plant!

My advice is go get a hygrometer for soil potted plants. At Lowes and Canadian tire I've seen them for $5Can. 80 watts of daylight CFL is sufficient to start seedlings. Use a good relective surface around the grow to get the best from the CFL's. Get a reflective bonnet for the CFL's. I tried 18/6d with this speck and it had to be uped to 20/4d for veg because the seedlings were getting lanky.
