Hey all. I'm new here. Very resourceful website just on all the threads alone however I need assistance with some Fastbuds autos (LSD25 & GSC) I planted 2 weeks ago. I started them in peat pellets, then once they shot out a few cm I put them into the medium. They grew quite well up until the first node (although it took a while to start growing).
They're in week 2 now and they're still at the first node with little growth. I have them under a 400w LED about 70cm away.
I do know that the roots have grown through the peat pellets as I can see the pellets are now steady and not loose.
They're grown indoors however not in a tent. The room is generally warmer than room temp and I do have a fan with fresh air entering the room. The soil is a mix of compost, manure, worm castings, bone meal, perlite, vermiculite, and some potting soil which was mixed with seed starter soil to make it less intense. The soil was prepared in 30L fabric pots.
I have attached multiple images from week one and week 2. Week 2 is where they have been now without any changes, and very little growth. I can see the small main shoots have grown slightly, but not enough to be comfortable. They're autos.
Please could I have some insight and an opinion as to what I should or shouldn't do.

- what exactly are the room temps day to might? RH% too,... seems something about that soil has stalled them out,... I see a lot of chunky, uncomposted bark, bit and the like,...very little fines..? You covered the more "organic" parts, but I see nothing about minerals, micronute source, lime, humic-fulvics, etc...... Did you test this soil's pH before planting? What nutes did you have in mind for use here? As is, this will not work as a "water only" soil.....
