Slow Growth

Dropped seeds into a cup of wet paper towel and set outside, 10/10 and they cracked by the 12th. When I was transplanting the cracks into the ProMix HP+ I spilled the cup of on the ground. I had to pick them up by fingertip and there were casualties.

The cups with a tear had two cracks while the cups with no tears only one.

The temp is a consistent, sunny 67°F. Today they got 3ml Flora green and 2ml Flora dark red per 1/2 gallon of water.

I have to upgrade my camera or something, sorry about the bad pics. I need a Nixon P1000 for this work.

I need to speed up growth. Got anything?

Not knowing the beginnings
Sometimes people start seedlings then do things like repotting to soon
Or dropping them or feeding to early
All these things can cause slow growth
The upside is they usually grow out of it
The mention of temps is a possibility too
A lot of folks see others growing in completely different methods and want their growth to compare
Not possible
What I do with a clone will not grow identical in your grow with the same clone
Finally keep em love and keep em healthy
It isn’t a race

Move the lights a lot closer..........those plants are way beyond normal stretching.
Also........transplant.
I wouldn't expect much of a yield.........stretched and spindly plants due to poor lighting .

OK. I'll lower the light to about 12" above the tallest plant. Leave the brightness?

I always get stretch. Even when I used a 1000W Horti Blue.

I can't comment on your light because I'm not familiar with it.
If you get stretch with a 1000w hortilux ..........you're doing something wrong.
These plants are the same age as yours for a comparison.

I always do something wrong. If I was a business consultant and had a client like me I'd feel sorry for him and plainly tell him to quit. I wouldn't even milk it for all it's worth.

Nice plants. What light are you using? I decided on brightening my light to 100%.
