No side branching

Hey Hey,

About 5 weeks into veg and I have no side branching? I’m gonna induce flowering next week only because of personal reasons.
The plants are about 5 inches tall now ( us that normal? I thought they’d be bigger)

Environment for veg:
Temp always between 72-80
Humidity always around 50-60
600w led at 24 inches away from plants

I did over water them the first 2 1/2 weeks

Once there over watered they do take a few weeks to get back into the swing. I'm just going thru the same thing and lost a month of growth.
Its really important to get things right at the start.

1st week pH water 6.8
2nd week 1/4 strength FF Big Bloom pH 6.9
3week 1/2 strength FF Big Bloom, 1/4 strength FF Grow Big ph 6.8

Plant looks healthy. PH seems high, even for soil (not sure how well MG organics buffers that's all).
You may have some minor nute lock out potentially from PH. Can you get picks of it under normal light?

Raise that light a little higher or the plant will stay very compact, and then top the thing it will branch out fine. Also cut out all the bloom shit, should be straight veg nutes at this stage and for the first 2-3 weeks of switching to 12/12.
