Plant Growth

I started from seeds. Using rapid rooters and hydroton. Plants are over two weeks old, but they seem to growing very slowly. The biggest is only about 1.5 inches and the smallest is about .5 inch.

Does it seem normal?

It does not seem normal at all.

Need to feed it, and get a decent light to get any growth.

Are u using just water??? or 5 watts of light

You should list more info and get real help.

Original poster: The reason that nobody here can help you is because you've provided us with no information about *how* you grow. It can be done dozens upon dozens of ways. Help us help you by listing you lighting, watering schedule, growing medium and method of growing (soil, hydro, etc...). Better yet, take a photo of your setup and add it here (when you post, click manage attachments -- the server resizes the pic for you so just upload straight from the digital camera).

Hope to help!

By the way, check out my grow journal for a picture of what a plant in Hydroton should look like at 2 weeks old. Mine were 1" tall just a couple days after they sprouted.

its normal dude dont worry! just give her water every other day and feed her fish emulsion every week! good luck!

My setup is:

150w HPS
6 36W CFL
Hydro
Water with nutes
Net cups with hydroton
Plants in rapid rooters

Any more info needed, please advise

I used to be overzealous, overwatering from sprout, kept everything too moist and my seedlings took a long time to get going. Maybe u need to let things dry a bit more so the seedlings gotta do some work and look for water, so they will get a root system started underneath and then get bigger above as well and look like these larger points you want to see. ?

How long do you suggest I turn off the feeder system? I have noticed the rapid rooters get dry very fast when there is no water.
