I cant think of any reason why mine are stunted be the biggest waste of $230, ive fed them low amounts of nuts in 3rd week onwards heat is okay humidity is okay fresh air in and out ph at 6.5

Would you mind giving me some info on hoe you do your grow? What soil you use and nuts? I want my next one to do really well

My plants are a bit bigger because they are autos and autos grow faster but you just need to do more research.
Read my grow journal and read everything you can, there are many ways to grow. My friend grows much better than me.

Thats why im worried because mine are autos aswell

Is your soil 30% perlite?
It may be the soil but I would ask @dbrn32 to look at your lights.

A couple of things that kind of stick out.

2 feet may be a little close for 600 watt hps on plants that size. The led, would really depend on model but that height is probably ok.

Appears your watering a little close to plant, just by looking at where soil is wet. Try watering in ring around the plant, halfway between plant and edge of pot. You may be able to give a little more water too, just keep on with making sure it dries out before watering again.

Can you reference what soil you used too?

Yeah the soil is what Iā€™m thinking his issue is,
You need a better quality soil and to mix it with 30% perlite along with some Myo enzymes

Thanks dude i will definitely change up the next one! Im not particularly sure on the soil i got it from bunnings and have thrown the package out what soils do you guys reccomend?

If youā€™re looking for some already amended with nutrients the fox farms stuff is really popular. If you would prefer something inert, promix hp or bx is probably where itā€™s at. I would say roughly 80% of the forum that isnā€™t using hydro is using one of the options listed above.

Sometimes just need to be treated a little differently depending on what you have. The biggest thing you want to avoid is anything with time release nutrients.

What @dbrn32 said :+1:.
Or if you want to make your own soil you can follow @garrigan62 (search his name and you will find a soil mixture post he always posts)
Or if you want it let me know and I can paste it but itā€™s a big list.
