My vote is cloth pots. There is a company called winner something that makes cheap ones on amazon. I recommend doubling in size at least for each transplant so I'd do 5 gallon. That's the size I flower in personally but some people say 7/10 gal.

So I'm thinking it's not lack of nutrients- you're using rich soil and added more to the pot. Have you done any feedings? Do you pH your water? Could be some kind of nutrient lockout?
I might have missed it but what kind of light do you use?

Okay and the light? @Jeffislovinlife asked about that as well earlier but I don't see an answer.

I got it from amazon its says its a 1000w but I don't think it is. The brand is gtmar its a full spectrum led grow light.

This guy?
yea it's not anywhere close to 1000w. That's what they call the "equivalent wattage"...it's BS marketing stuff. Real power draw that's about 120-130 watts of old school blurple.

I would keep that at about 13-14 inches with both switches flipped for veg, and invest on a better flowering light tbh.

Do you think it will be possible to grow it outdoors if not what light would you recommend.

That depends- are you just planning on doing a single plant? What would the light budget be?
Growing outside comes with its own risks- pests, discovery, etc. The sun is definitely superior to any grow light if you can pull it off but there is a lot to consider (legality, neighbors, etc.)

Anything but topolite...the only really junk brand I've purchased.

Thanks for all the help. So I just let it stay with the soil then feed it when the nutrients run out of the soil?

Yea, it's easier to fix a nutrient deficiency than an overdose so whatever you do, do it in moderation... if you feed start with 1/4 of the recommended dose and see how they respond at first.

I would do nothing bigger than a 3 gallon smart pot.

Definitely time to start feeding it! It looks way too small to already be in flower, but give it a good balanced NPK fertilizer right away and PH the solution to 6-6.5. Improper PH prohibits the plant from uptaking nutrients.
