Help! First time grower questions

Help! First growing attempt. This plant is 16 weeks old. It has been growing so slow, not a lot of leaves. I do feed it, fox farm. ph level is at 7. I use a Haus bright light bulb. It lives among other house plants and gets at least 12 hours of light, more when it was younger. Small plants are clones. I did clip some of the bigger leaves off but it has always been sparse looking, not like pics I see of thick growth.
Questions - how to speed up growth?
Can I or should I repot into bigger pot, it is flowering, I think?
Thanks! filedata/fetch?filedataid=166156

IF it is in soil, PH at 6.2-6.5 in veg, then in flower 6.5-6.8. You got ripped off on the light, you need a real LED or other light, something along the line of 300-400 (Watt or more) for LED.
We need pics and much more info.

No size pot will help your plants grow bigger if you don't have enough strong lighting. Put it outside there's your cheap ass strong light.
 
There are some symbiotic plants like clover I will someday give a try. I also know I other folks grow near other type plants especially outside. I personally have decided to never have my cannabis anywhere near other plants. I think it adds to the possibility of pests or other problems or contaminants. We all put so much time effort and money into getting sticky nugs it is painful when it goes bad. Especially at the very end of a good grow.
Imo you need more than 12hrs during grow stage of photos or the plant thinks it is fall. I think you could save it with more and longer light
 
Thank you all! I have another light coming, going to try that. It's getting too cold at night here to take outside. Still wondering about transplanting in bigger pot, but is it too late?

Update (if interested) Moved my plant so it can be in light/dark 12/12. Put an additional light on it.
Leaves are getting fuzzy, what is that?
Is it ok?
How is it looking?
Should I trim larger leaves off?
4 photos attached.
Any thoughts helpful, thank you.

Did you transplant it to a larger pot? Yes now it's flowering. May want to put a bamboo pole in it to help support the stalk. If you plan on really trying to grow indoor weed you'll need to change what your doing i'm sure you see that by looking at other indoor growers. A slight breeze with a fan would of made the plant stronger. Don't give up
 
I did transplant to larger pot. I have a heater blowing on it because where it is at, gets cold. It's 5-6 feet away. I know, I made some mistakes. I'm not ready to give up yet, thank you!
 
You're either lucky or you got a feminized seed. Either way, next time you grow cannabis and you want to be able to enjoy the flowers it can provide I suggest you put your plant under a minimum of 18 hours of light. When the plant has grown to the size you want change the light schedule to 12 hours on/12 hours off. This will signal the plant to start flowering.

There are other techniques like topping or fimming that can increase your yields but for now stick with the basics.
