New Grower Shouldn’t they be bigger?

[teaser3]

I planted these WWAs on Dec. 19. Shouldn’t they be bigger? They’re growing but it seems slow compared to journals I’ve seen.

Hello bud, I’m pretty new to all this so I’m still learning from people of hear, but my white widow auto I planted around the same time as u the 16th Dec and they looked like this

And your near the end of week 4 where they should be looking something like this

So yes I think something isn’t right and I’m unsure what their are plenty of people of hear with good knowledge hopefully someone can help

Looks like lack of light, they are stretching. From the pictures there is no reflector on your light so over 75% of your light is going up.

Don't get in the habit of comparing your grow to other growers. It is a lost cause and serves nothing but frustration. There are far too many varied conditions from one grow to the next. Don't fall prey.

It would be more helpful if you gave us specifics of grow medium, temps, lights, nutes, grow space size etc.

I was going to say low temperature. Last time mine grew like that it was about 60F. Bring it up to about 78.

What are you feeding them and what lights

Some more information

Plants are in a grow box (171cm x 61cm x 61 cm)
Medium: Soil
Lights: LED
Nutrients: a basic grow fertilizer (19-5-20)

Tycho: I’ve thought the same thing, that the temperature is too low.

Lights are led? Cause your pick is cfl??? I hope it is led, because while you can grow with cfl it's not the best more like the worst. Not hatin', just sayin'. Maybe you were just using for seedlings. I think Rollin_along and Tycho are right. I did a grow last Feb and temps were low. I added my 2nd light, which added some more heat and then they took off.

Lol @Mcdee I thought the same thing , then realised it's two people jumped on the same thread. One I think needs a reflector on the CFL and the LED looks like small strip lights not an led grow light. You need around 200 actual LED watts for 4 or 5 plants minimum.
