Hi there, and welcome! What exactly is the medium it's growing in? Am I seeing large bark chips? Nebula has mentioned that somehow cannabis does not do well in that. I wonder if that's why they're so small. Stay tuned...you will probably be getting some more expert advice soon. Good luck!
 
It does look like a lot of bark chips in your soil. Get a mix that has nice dark loose soil mixed with perlite. Transfer to bigger pots and make sure they have drainage hole. Check the pH of your water. should be between 6 and 6.5 Water thoroughly until you see at least a little run off. Then allow to dry before watering again. At least that is a start.

Do you have access to a garden supply store? If so, just get a nice organic soil with a good amount of perlite mixed in. Fox Farm is a highly recommended brand, though I don't have that where I live. You can order it online. I used a soil called Baccto. Was wonderful. They say that Miracle Grow soil is not good because of the time released nutrients.
 
Welcome to the jungle!!! the spot are from ph being to high for the soil you have it needs to be at 6.0 to 6.2 because the soil is not ideal compared to the super soils.Trans plant into bigger pots and get better soil. If your plants are small like they are the amount of water I use at that size is 1 cup per day per plant or 9 oz. per day also if your not getting any variation on your soil ph your meter might not be working properly.
 
Yes there are some bigger Chunks of bark will it be okay to remove them now or is it to late? Also what light schedule should they be on?

Wow thanks everyone! Im going to transplant them tommorow! How big of a pot should they go in? Also im using a 600watt pink red and blue led hydroponics lights also should they be under light 24/7? Becuase they are..
 
18/6 is great for them they need there rest too! I have to yell u I'm kind of shocked the last couple runs of bag seeds they where in a solo cup and shot up over 2 ft I was always bending, super cropping, trimming. I do have to say they look good tho if u move your light further away they will stretch more. But like green75 said bend or tie over after u get transplanted to get that side growth groving!! No worries man you will get them straightened out they will be growing like crazy soon!!;)
 
Perfect! Once i transplant them ill switch to a 18/6 then start training them! Thanks again everyone ill keep you updated as they hopefully get bigger and better!
 
Sounds like everything should be ideal. Fox farm is great soil, environment is good, light should be fine.

Theyre so small for 5 weeks. If the transplant doesn't work I would consider genetics as a possible issue. What are they?
 
Lots of people run 24/0 with good results.

I think most feel the plants need some time off from constantly photosynthesizing. At least 4 hours of dark is bare minimum for me.

okay cool im going to start giving them some time in the dark after I transplant them to bigger pots...what is the best way to transplant them? and is what is the easiest way to mess the plant up when im transplanting it so that I make sure I don't do it lol and again thanks for your help very appreciated
