With the new HLG light, the plants look much healthier, but still tiny. Right now I have a plant growing that is supposed to reach over 100cm. It has 8 sets of leaves, it's flowering and is only 4" tall. It's 18" from the light. I tried having the light closer on a previous plant, but it burned it. Based on recent experience, I expect it wont even be a foot tall when it's done.
The one major factor that I haven't changed is humidity. I'm fixing that soon. bboyfromwayback suggested it eary in this thread. In the summer humidity is not a problem, but in the winter it get's too low. I bought a hygrometer recently and found that the humidity inside the tent is 27%. I should have that corrected by the end of the week (these problems have persisted in the summer , so it may not be the humidity level). The picture is at 16 days. It began flowering on day 18. When I first started with autos, they would be about a foot tall when they started flowering. Usually around day 21. I started another plant yesterday, so it should have the full benefit of correct humidity throughout it's life.
