Are they too small?

I started out with seeds I got from my dispensary that I guess were given on accident. I germed with paper towel method on October 15th and they did well and were ready in 1 day. I put them in soil which is Patio Plus. I watered them well and left for the weekend. When I came back after 2 days they were sprouted.

For the first week and a half or so they were growing outside and getting only about 4-5 hours of direct sunlight a day. I finally got my grow tent about a week ago and they’ve been in there ever since. I use a 600 W LED with a veg and bloom switch but I turn both of them on. The temp inside averages at about 72 degrees and the humidity averages about 40 - 60 %. I have 3 flaps in the tent. One is connected to an exhaust fan and 2 are just open for airflow. The light also has two small fans on it. For the first 2 days in the tent I had them on 16/8. But for the past 3 or 4 days they been 20/4.

For the first like 2 weeks I was watering them about once a day then I moved them to bigger pots. They’ve been in the bigger pots for about 3 days now and I watered them decently well without soaking about 3 days ago and did a light watering yesterday because the soil felt dry. Do you think they are growing slow. Canyou tell if they are male or female yet?

***Disclaimer*** I am a broke college student. I am not gonna buy any extra nutes to put in the soil. Also I kinda like the idea that it was only grown in soil. I wanted to use organic soil but couldn’t afford it. I use water that is about ph 6 or 7. Not tap unless I’ve left it out 24 hours.

Don't know what that's supposed to mean, but you have to give us more than 16 minutes to reply. That's all I was saying. You will also get a lot more help if you have a good attitude. Peace man.
Lol because I’m like the Padawan and you’re the Jedi. In any case. You’re right I should be more patient. This hobby is a test or lesson in that sense. I just other people’s post had multiple replies within 5 min so it was obvious people had skipped over mine. That was posted 30 min ago.

I think it would be wrong to soak the pot seeing as they are too small. I water around the plant in a circular radius of about half the pot. With more emphasis on getting deep into the soil.
What he means is don't water until you lift the pot up and it feels very light weight. (Aka...very dried out)

My 3 gal fabric pots weigh around 10 pounds after a good watering. By the time I water again they weigh about 2 pounds. So very dry and light weight before next watering. :)

Hehe, there’s gotta be a Chuck Norris joke about tilting the world in there somewhere
Chuck Norris doesn't lift pots up, he pushes the world down.

Chuck Norris doesn't feed plants nutrients, he just looks at them and they shit themselves and feed off that.

Chuck Norris doesn't do Low Stress Training he supercrops with a roundhouse kick to the stem and gets one pound per bud.

Chuck Norris doesn't need an extractor fan, he just looks at the heat with distain and it leaves without resistance.
