Slow Plant Growth?

[Glizzy2x]

What’s up everyone? First time grower here. I’ve been online looking at where my plants growth should be for their age. Mostly comparing to other outdoor grows of the same strain. While I understand that environment & other growth factors differ, they still seem to be a bit slow.

Type: Outdoor Grow in Greenhouse

Soil: 60% Roots Organics 40% Great Lakes Living Soil

Pot Type/Size: 5 Gallon Fabric Pot for CDLC & Mango Smile. Purple Lemonade in 2 Gallon Bloem Self Watering Pot

Nutes so far: Gold Shield Silica (started on day 10, once a week for right now)

Strains/Sprout Date: CDLC - 8/1/22,
Mango Smile - 8/2/22 & Purple Lemonade, 8/10/22

Average Temp/Humidity: 81 degrees Fahrenheit (high) Lows are 61 degrees. 63% Humidity

Sunlight/Daylight: about 9 hours direct Sunlight - 13.5. Hours of Daylight

CDLC & Mango Smile are my main concerns (2 weeks & 4 days since sprout). The Purple Lemonade is only a week old since sprout & is doing well in my opinion.

Here are pictures from 8/12/22

Now don’t get me wrong, they look healthy & within the last week, they’ve grown alot from where they were (especially after I upped their water intake, was afraid of overwatering for a bit, getting more comfortable as I learn). They’re just not where I expected them to be after looking at other outdoor grows. Most of them look similar even with different environmental/growth factors. Here are pictures from today

Do they seem on track? Opinions/Advice?

I think they look perfect. How are your nighttime temperatures in the greenhouse?

They do look a little behind but healthy. They should be working on root building at that stage, which is kinda what matters. Most likely you'll see a good boost in growth the next week or 2

Thanks! 61-68 degrees Fahrenheit

Ok, that’s good to know. Thank you!

When they first get going they appear to not be doing anything, but below the surface they are banging it!

You're definitely in good shape.

Mostly all the growing at this stage is building roots and in a week or so they will start growing noticeably faster so just give them time
