Plants are growing but roots arent?

First I received the plants as clones then I kept them in an ice box and with florescent lights and regulated the temperature and humidity...

Now the plants are growing well but today when I checked the largest plant (about 6 inch+) there roots barely grew...In a video I saw fresh clones about 3-4 inches grew crazy roots

Is this a bad sign? should I somehow stimulate root growth first before switching to the HPS?

each strains roots grow diiferently. i've had pots that were near root bound and others of different strains the same age that barely had roots at all yet the results of the finished product were the same.

To help your roots grow try this or something like it before putting under HPS

oh no no sorry the ice box is just a container box...its not meant to keep them in statis or anything..i'm just growing there

i think it could be when i transplanted them into the styrofoam cups there wasn't enough drainage that the soil was clogged..i dont know...lots of trials and errors for me right now
