How much are you watering? What type of soil are you using? Whats your lighting cycle? Ventilation?

These are the question ppl on here are going to ask you, so you prolly should post an addendum.

I say, just let it grow, dont rush it. enjoy watching that tiny seed grow and evolve over the next few months.

Its life. enjoy it.

Low room temperature and low soil temperature can cause slow growth, especially slow initial growth.

im using a 18/6 light cycle. i am growing in a big closet next to my bathroom.. i have a 12 inch box fan blowing on them constantly.. i know i have great ventiliation. i didnt even pack my soil. i am using mg organic choice potting soil.. and im using 26 watt daylight bulbs 3 on each. i had problems in the first 2 weeks with overwatering in jiffy cups. i didnt have a hole cut at the bottom of the jiffy and i think it suffocated the roots. so i took it out and put both plants in these big pots. its finally growing nice and green with no yellowing on the new leaves. should i give it any kind of fert anytime soon??? i have 24-8-16 fert ???? lemme know

oh yeah and also im on a 4-5 day watering cycle now.. just depends.. i just checked my thermostat and its reading 77F with 66% humidity. that should be fine, right? and when the lights go off it was reading 70 F with a higher humidity like 80%+

i normally start off seedlings in a smaller pot, then transplant later fo flower,, they seem 2 like it better that way. i put straight into a large pot b4 thinking i wouldnt have to transplant and they died on me:( still at least yours are growing so wen they do get settled in im sure they will make up 4 lost time gd luck. humidity is fine maybe 80% is pushinmg it a bit, will have 2 be lower wen u flower them. bout 40% tops not sure wat 70.f is but in .c keep between 21-28.c like matey said watch and learn its wat its all about:):joint:

Dude, you have to start them off in smaller pots.

For the plant to even begin growing upwards out of the ground the roots have to reach one of the edges of the pot.
So with such a big container (like yours) its going to take them 3 or 4 times longer than if you used something smaller and then transplanted them to something bigger after they have matured a little bit. Growing outdoors is completely different and they obviously have a much different growth stages because they aren't in pots.

I started mine in plastic cups, which were pretty damn small. They began growing much faster because of the smaller area they had to expand into. I just transplanted them into 1 gallon pots.

Rach,.. enough to change my sig. Too many horny teens on this site. I like the photo, but I may change it.

Anyone know of any strains that just take a long time from sprout to first true node?
