i have some seedlings i germinated july 26, they have been under four floros, fert once a week, with the earth grow combinations, at one fourth the strength, but they don't want to grow, the first pic is a red widow13xkiwi and the second plant is a green giantxice princessxkiwi, the red widow is strange, no leaves are on one side and the other side you can see the little flower that is starting to grow, the green giant is getting hairs that look like the cotton ball on the top of it, never had all the seedlings at one time be this way, and never flower while under veg. what am i doing here, have fresh air, a fan going all the time, why aren't we doing anything other than sending out flowers
thanks mrs ole henry

sounds like they have just matured, usually takes around 5 weeks and that's about right by your timeline. Either that or maybe they are rootbound. What size container you got them in? Some strains autoflower when rootbound.

they are all in five gallons containers, but all are like five to six inches tall, how are they going to make bud being so small, like that first pic of the red widow, it is like there is not top to it, nothing has happened to injure the plant, some of the others that i pinched back are starting to branch out but still real small thanks for your help

could you take any better pics? like maybe side shots, full plant shots?

they look deficient in something
what have you been giving them for food, what's in the soil mix?
are you able to test the pH of the runoff water?

hope these will help, i know they are not dark green like others have been, very pale green, these first two pics are the green giant, and the little clone setting on top of the soil has been setting there since july 28th and no roots yet, looks greener than the giant the next two are of the red widow and the last one is the giant again, one more of the giant next post, just don't know why all eight are like this, thanks mrs ole henry

here is the last of the green giant, i have a giant under a 400 hps and it isn't doing a lot either, have four others though that are growing leaps and bounds and green as all get out, bushy and normal, but they are different strains.
thanks again mrs ole henry
its smart to pick your friends--- but not to pieces

c-ray the soil is miracle grow, the water i use is from a system we have in the house and the water is pure, i have never done the ph thing, i wouldn't even know what to look for there, the other plants that have grown, we have used pro mix soil from canada, but switched, the fert we use is that five bottle set of earth juice, and i follow the directions on the back and use just 1/4 of the directed usage, then up it as time goes on but haven't upped it yet, hope i didn't forget anything now thanks for trying to help, i know it is hard from pics mrs ole henry

might just be the strain you are growing, I heard "The Doctor" has that problem sometimes too, it grows a little and then just stops.
