Root Enhancer Stunting My Growth? (PICS)

Hey,

So, I might have over done it with this root enhancer.
I am running a 11 gallons in a DWC system.
The directions say to use 1ml for every 5 gallons, which I did at first.
The yesterday I had to bring some water levels back up so I added another 1ml for about 1/2 gallon :sad:
My plants have been this size for about 3 days with no new growth.
The good thing is the roots are shooting off like nuts.

I also fimmed them, would that cause a slow in growth?

I have attached pictures of:

You know I wrestle with this but here goes. Last grow was over 6 foot and had a very small root system. Bottom line buds grew and had a pretty nice yield but no where near what it should have been for 6 foot. Small roots small yield. I am in soil this time and the plants, like yours, are smaller after 7 weeks than I would like but the root system is fantastic. I might get three to four feet out of these but I would bet that when it comes time to flower I am going to be happy because of the root system.

It makes sense what you are saying.... This guy who had grew these huge veggies said the key is a good root system. Even so, that snoop dogg invited him to his concert to get his secret & that secret was a rooting enhancer.
I've just heard hydrogen peroxide slows down growth a lot & figured this stuff might contain some.... Tho, who knows.... I'd rather have 4 foot plants then 6 foot plants... I only have 3x3x5 to grow in.
 
My money would be on that its the fimming has temporarily slowed their growth while they redirect their energies into the new growth spots.

And as ChrisHydro says, a good, solid rootball is the best foundation for giving the plant the potential to grow future fat buds.

I'd say they should perk up on the growth front within 7 - 10 days.

Good insight!
