Help! This has never happened to me before, after like 5-6 grows, so I'm not sure what to do - I planted this guy at LEAST three weeks ago, and as you can see from the pics, the leafs are nice and green, maybe cupping down a LITTLE bit, and there are roots coming out of the plug, but the leaves have stayed EXACTLY the same size for at least the past week or so! I'm still giving it plain water; should I be nuting already? I usually wait until the next set of leaves comes in, but could that be the problem? Is the light too close? It's a 400w MH bulb that I've used for my last few grows, and it's ~16" from the plant; is that too close?

How are you watering? Much, often? Does it have drainage?
it don't help to pull it in and out the soil like in the second picture that's for sur.
 
A cup or two, twice a day, and there are drainage holes in the bottom of the cup - yeah, the coco mix drained off the top of the plug, so it wasn't even covered; that's the only reason I could lift it - I covered it up again!
 
I would start with letting it dry out. It is to old to be that small, so I think you are overwatering. 1) Let it go a couple of days, your pot should be lite when you pick it up,
Are you Ph'ing your water and what nutes do you have?
 
What brand of what, water? I've always just used tap water for the first 2 weeks or so; the coco mix was presoaked in CalMagic, but I've just been giving it plain water.
 
And are y ph’ing your tap water to 6.5 and letting stand open to get to room temperature giving the clorine a chance to evaporate before watering?
 
Ok
So my advice would be to let that mud dry out should take another day or two then start your plant on your
Gh schedule at WEEK 1, as you probably know it is important to PH your water, I'd suggest 6.2ph.
Then let that dry out for a day or two.
next give plain PH'ED water with 1/2 dose of calmag.
Make sure you get a little runoff each time you water.
You should see Improvement by the end of your week two watering schedule.
 
Hello Grower, Mr.furley is correct ! your plant is drowning, the second photo shows the plant is sitting in water without any chance of air circulation for the soil as well as the roots!, Do not water for 3 days and then water with a shot glass every other day you should be fine. good luck!
