Your soil looks to be pretty bad imo. If it's not allowing roots to grow it will not grow. Which may be what happening.

That wouldn't make it not grow. That's basically what SOG is. All it does is promote it going into flower faster, but it should still grow.
Of course it would. A flowering light schedule from germination stunts growth. Besides, who said it was one thing?

Yes it will stunt growth but not like what we're seeing. All you have to do is look how hard his soil is to see the problem. I can guarantee the roots aren't growing. It looks like concrete.

You going to have to grow in real soil. I'm not too sure on the nutrient value of saw dust. Probably nill to nothing.

Agreed. The soil is not suitable.

Soil looks to be too dense and lacking in nutrients.

I have never heard amended with sawdust. Why? What is the purpose?

I know sawdust is good for composting. I am wondering if that is what he is getting his idea from. But from what I've read you shouldn't use it to grow as an amendment.
