New Grower Why is it still so small???

[Xaluti]

Hi guys I wondering if anyone could help me. I have this gorilla auto and it’s in week 4 and still this size. Could it be that the seeds were a bit old?

maybe a picture under white light would be better to see how she is doing.
i wouldn't think it's because it's old... do you know ph of the medium? do you ph your feeds/waterings? laso, what light are you using and how far?

stop pulling at it then...

sorry couldn't help my self... weird one that, I can't see how the age of the seed would effect the growth but I could be completely wrong... maybe slight over watering ? ... I would just chalk it up and pop another bean so you have some back up.

If you think it could be amajor problem I would post this up in the infirmary, you will most probably get a better answerer

maybe overwatering and how cold is it getting at lights off at 4 weeks i would consider doing another seed as a backup that's just me

I think your problem is environmental. I don't think it's genetics, age of seeds etc. Yes, old seeds are not as viable, but they would just show a lower germination rate, rather than the plants being small. Without more info it could be anything from root rot to lockout to pH issues etc. Sometimes stuff just happens. I've been growing for 20 years and things still happen.... especially with autos as you're constantly trying new strains, techniques and breeders. With that said, I wholeheartedly recommend some Mephisto for autos...try anything with Stomper, Grape or Kush to be blown away.

THEY'RE called KAAAAHBS Joe's dad's stuff

Thanks for the info guys. The ph is at 6.8 which should be ok and the nutes are bio bizz. Temp at night would be around the 18/20c (maybe it’s a bit to cold?) I never had this problem. The light is a mars hydro 300w

Could just be plain unlucky and it was gonna be a dud no matter what.

Geez dude... was almost afraid to open this post!

But yeah, if the soils not too hot, and ph ok... lights out temps are on the cool side, but not terible.


@Xaluti What is the pot sitting on? Concrete?

There are tiles. Maybe I should put some wood or a piece of styrofoam under to cut the heat?

Don't know the temp of the tile., but have seen cold roots do that...
