Slow growth?

This is my first plant ever, it's 15 days old and compared to other plant that are around that age it seems younger.
-I'm using a 125 watt grow light
-Growing in soil
-The strain in question is "bubble kush automatic" from "Royal Queen Seeds"
-Fed it today for the first time with "Green House Seeds all in one grow" powder that i mixed with tap water with a pH of 7.5 (I don't have anything to bring the pH down), using 2g for 2L of water and feeding the plant with 5ml of that water.
-A fan is always on
-Light and night time were messed up for 13 days because i was turning it on and off by hand, it's automatic now.
Aside from that, the leaves are clearly bent, they weren't 2 days ago. Any ideas what's going on?DSC_0060.JPG DSC_0061.JPG Powder-Feeding-Grow-Granular-Fertilizer-1kg.jpg

In soil you are feeding a bit early, you say its an auto but you are switching your lights on and off, how long are you leaving the lights on? Autos like their lights on more than photo period cannabis, keep them on for at least 18 hrs per day, don't bother to compare your 2 week plant with others 2 week plants, every strain and every seed of that strain will have different growth rates....concentrate on growing healthy plants and big ones will show up:peace:


Edit: in a pinch you can lower your ph with lemon juice, or any other non toxic acid for that matter

Wow that was fast, thank youuu. I leave the lights on for 18 hours, but i'm still worried about the leaves, they shouldn't be bending like that.

I would hold back on nutrients unless I saw a need for them, she looks green and healthy, plus the cotys are still thick and green, those combined with the base soil should have enough food to keep them growing for a while, I'd get the opinion of a soil grower on that though, I'm a coco grower and things work a bit different in my garden

Ya man there cheap! Stop nutes or
they might burn on you. Leaves I mean. There little indicators of what's going on beneath the surface
