Leaves by the Nodes?

Hello Again,

Quick question. My plant is startgin to grow leaves by its nodes. I believe that this is normal but how come they grow so much slower than the fan leaves. My fan leaves almost double in size in a day, while the leaves by the nodes seem to be taking forever. I have put a few CFLs near the bottom and by the side of the plant too as well as bending the to try and promote more side growth.
Any other suggestions to make them grow faster other than buying more lights?

Thanks

The leaves developing at the nodes normally take more time to develop then the leaves at the top of the plant. This is not unusual.

The nodes are developing branches, that's what those leaves are the start of. It just takes a little longer because they have to put more work into it.
