Stunted growth

Hello everyone. I think my plants growth is stunted even though they are healthy they aren't growing tall. Right now we are a few days into week one of flower after vegging for a month and they are still kinda small. I had 8 plants In soil in a 2x4 tent under a HLG 320XL which I removed two to put them in a seperate sent to be mothers. I don't have an AC because i took it out due to having an AC in the window during winter is kinda suspect. As of now I just leave the window cracked for airflow in the room but that can cause the temps to fluctuate between around 68 deg with the lights off to anywhere from 75-82 with the lights on. May that be causing my slow growth?

I topped all plants once while they were kinda short because they were developing slow. They are healthy and show no issues at all. I'm about to hit week two of flower and was gonna defoliafe if they got bigger but since they haven't I'll leave them.alone.

I'm doing an all organic soil grow 50/50 FFOF and Happy Frog with added per lite and EWC

i dont think that small fluctustion would cause much stunting. those plants are bequtiful and likely just bushing out alot

I’m curious....I currently have 3 super skunk autos under the same setup as yours. They are just shy of 3 weeks old and very closely resemble yours...short and bushy. It’s my first grow and don’t really know how to keep score.
Did yours turn out OK? I know my strain is a shorter plant, and they look totally healthy, but I have the same concerns as u.
Any feedback would be helpful and appreciated.....thanks so much.

Seeing you only vegged for a month, it will take them some time to mature enough to really begin to flower. So, even though you are starting your 2nd week of flower, those plants are likely only beginning to preflower right now! In other words... flowering won't really even start until the beginning of week 3, because it usally takes an immature plant 10-14 days to switch to flowering if she wasn't preflowering before the flip 12/12!
