Hello.. I got 2 plants indoor in a 400w lamp and I have a problem.. in the first 10 days everything was ok the plant growing normally the leaves were getting bigger and bigger and the plant higher!.. at about 15th day the plant started to have a stun growth and stoped growing so fast like was doin before... the leaves didnt grow up so much their too small for a 24th day plant like the hole plant is.. but the basic key phrase for my problem is the "small leaves"!.. bottom leaves start to be yello as well.. I hope I will upload some pictures soonn but untill then anyone has any idea why the plant has so much small leaves? (the plant still is greeen

and seemes it want to be healthy but something is missing.........

Hi johnnevy2424 and welcome to rollitup. I dont 100% agree with BUDS but with out pictures this is hard to answer but I will give my college try. Usually growth stunt can mean two things either too much watering or nutrient lockout. Too much watering is easy to correct but will take at least a couple days for the plant to absorb the water you can always remove the first two inches of soil and add new soil if soil is how your growing. In hydro or coco mediums you don't see over watering. What you get instead is nutrient lockout which means that somewhere in your nutrient mixing something went wrong in which case you just flush (look it up in the forums) your plants and add new nutrients. There is also the possibility your lights are too close which can cause stress and cause stunting as well but that is not usually the case. As I said in the beginning it is hard to really know how to diagnose the problem. Also info on what kind of light and what medium your using would help. If your trying to get help include as much info as possible the more the better.

buds is most likely right. the available information says the pot is too small. at just under a month, if your growth was normal then you should be in a 1 gallon sized pot or higher.
