Plants stopped growing week 1-2

If your soil doesn’t have added nutes than the bigger one most certainly does NOT have enough food. After second week, you will usually get yellowing on first one blade set of leaves if there is no food available. It will be a slow yellowing and not drastically fast so it isn’t a huge issue and easy to correct. As stated before, all green plants, even seedlings, grow faster. You go another week without feeding and the first set of 3 finger leaves will also most likely begin to yellow a bit.

Never seen a bud stress or pray. They usually just fill out.

You can make this personal if you like. I never said you were a bad grower, didn't say you didn't know what you were doing. However, science says long term praying is bad. Take it for what it's worth.

nothing personal here,its just cats running around here spouting off all kinds of crap without showing any proof.come on what u got going lets see it.then we can talk

I live in a prohibition state, so I never took pics before here, but found these earlier today on my wife's phone. Best I can do for past harvests. Have my season starters, little over a week old, tips clipped if you want to see them lol.

Bubba's Gift. That was probably about 6 weeks I guess.



My Jack Herer/Blueberry cross. Not making excuses, but I was building my house at the time, as you can see. So, they got no love, topped just the once. Most recent indoor harvest. Still decent smoke.

I still grow in the yard lol. I don't believe it's high thc lol. Had a fair punch, but nothing like a Sour D or the like. Pretty good smoke as far as taste and high, though the yield was small. Humboldt said it would be, but I was still expecting more. Main colas were only about 6" long, didn't like training, so mostly small tight buds all over. I would recommend it as a connoisseur bud, but that's about it.

Only got to do a few last year. This is a skunk/powerbud cross outside and inside at about 7 weeks hiding from the storm. This year I’m going to put out a few Kali mist crosses that should do surprising well northeast.

Back to the thread...it was asked, but not answered. What are you growing in?

Thought we answered it. Probably an Mg def, right? Lol

I'm asking the Op what they're growing in.

Yeah it's not fine, leaves started to be drooping, I think I fucked up my first grow, good job me. Is there a chance plants stunted in first week will recover?

If you'd share the details of your grow, you might receive some useful help.

What medium are you growing in?
What are you feeding?
At what strength are you feeding?
How often are you feeding?
How often are you watering?
Are you pH'ing your feed / water, and if so, to what?
ETC, ETC, ETC....

These are common variables that go into growing cannabis. If you can find the time to share, I'm betting someone here can find the time to help you. If not....good luck.

Current update: yesterday I watered the little one with plain water and the droopy leaves disappeared today so maybe it is recovering.
I'm not feeding at the moment and the soil is biobizz lightmix, it's lightly fertilized for first week. I'm watering every 2-3 days, when the cup is very dry and ph is 6.7

I'm letting the cup dry completely, I've been watering 5 mL of water and today I've watered all the cup and i won't water for 3-5 days maybe. The bigger one is doing fine I guess, I see new growth even if it's dwarfing. The little one maybe is recovering since I see new growth but very slowly, I'll probably pop another seed these days.

Soil was too hot if you didn't feed. You can see it from the nute burn. They're taking to it now, first leaves on both got whacked and the rest are a nice color green.

Or maybe overwatering caused deficiencies, I don't know. I used the same soil 1 year ago for autoflowers and got no problems of nutes burn

Judging by the green of the leaves and the tips on the first set, I say overfed. Different genetics do different things.

If you had no problems last year with autos, I wouldn't think you'd be overwatering, I would think you'd have that down by now, especially with autos.

Biggest plant is 13 days old and smallest is 7 days old and they both stopped growing and started yellowing, what can I do? 13 days old plant has been repotted 2 days ago. Is it N deficiency or overwatering?
Humidity lights on is 35-40%, lights off 45-50%

Like some have mentioned you potted up way too early,try party cup, then 6" pot then step up to your final pot,let the 1 in the small cup shoot 4-5 sets of leaves before you pot up next time,tip upside down,look to see if the roots are covering the bottom half of the container if so you step up the pot size.be patient with the small 1 its early days, and need the roots to fill the pot before you will see noticeable growth, good luck

Oh no is that seeded,look like 1 or 2 seeds in That, hope I'm wrong

Update after weeks, repotted using mycos and the plant exploded. I started doing lst on the right one but I think I did it too early and now it's a bush-mess
