hi have this 6 week old Afghan Kush germinated from feminised seed but seems very small. Have seen other pics of Afghan and also small but not this small. I went away for two weeks and when home had to repot to bigger plant pot as thought that could be stunting it. Temp is usually about 65,i know need to get to 75,am doing that. As i think heat may have factored to growth i have decided to induce flowering to get rough idea what could have been wrong. Any ideas appreciated. I use a 300 watt CFL dual Spectrum and one other plant using it.

Hey, Im not an experienced grower, but I have 5 plants that are about 5 weeks into VEG. I was using pretty small pots and my plants seemed to be far behind schedule at about the 3rd week margin, so I upgraded on plant to a pot almost double size. Within 3 days, the two plants had almost doubled. So I upgraded all my plants to larger mediums and they have all completely taken off. Just a bit of help from my side, goodluck and hope your flowering goes well

By the pictures you have, they do seem to be very small for 6 weeks old. Mine at 6 weeks were probably about 8 inches tall and that was after I messed up with tons of different techniques and problems. Since Im a beginner, I had to first learn that black heat lamps and light heat lamps don't work. So that set me back 2 or 3 weeks. And then the watering cycle was all messed up. So I would have guessed t would be at least 14 inches if i had your light and steady rate. The only way I think your plant would be so little is if you had bad seeds of that strain, or if you didn't have the light at least 5 inches from the plant. 5 instead of 2, im guessing, because thats a high wattage. Hope this helps.

Looks healthy, not sure what happened but that is very small for 6 weeks. I don't use CFL's myself. I just start my seeds under my 600 HPS. Here's a pic of one 11 days from seed.

FIRST OF ALL THE REASON UR PLANT IS SOOOO SMALL AFTER 6 WEEKS IS BECAUSE OF THAT TIN FOIL YOU HAVE AROUND THE BOTTOM OF UR PLANT!
your covering the soil and the light is reflecting off the tin foil and ur loosing NRG

get rid of tin foil asap!

the actual plant looks healthy and nice if im honest - real nice shade of green which is a good sign, no defiencies and no nute burn! all i would do if i were u - i would get it into a bigger pot ASAP and wud VEG it for as long as it takes (maybe 10 weeks) keep the light on 24 hours from now and and then u shud be fine! good luck and remember

never use tin foil like that at the bass of the plant - peace

I weren`t sure if you could see the pics thought done wrong will take foil off ,reason put there was soil drying to quickly and was in much smaller pot,believe me is bigger than looks there 5 litres.The plant is very nice to look at and downfall is height but to be honest i gave load of water and feed, was time anyway,is growing lol.Could have been the transportation to bigger pot and lack of water in my opinion now. To Purfict, (my first grow lol,have done loads of research) i had no idea would need pot that size now . For Lunatics Laugh,North Eastern Lights and England 123,thankyou for input and is shame,stunted as OMG looks better in the flesh(you know what i mean lol),I am happy with light,although will need repositioned to accomodate a second big pot. I am gonna veg longer as looks so nice lol,and cross everything. Will update.Much appreciate the time to respond thankyou.

I'm not very experienced but I would say getting a stronger/better light. What is your light cycle? I agree get rid of that tinfoil ASAP!!:bigjoint: burn one
-Edit- Light is fine, just give atleast 20 hours of light a day to keep in veg stage until i gets bigger?
