Hello,
I am growing a couple of plants for myself and am having some problems. The main problem is that the plants I am growing are under flourescents and are growing extremely slow. They are not starved for light because the nodes are about 1/4 inch apart but all the leaves are staying real small and like I said the growth is sloooooowww. They were slightly nute burned in the beginning because of the Miricle Grow soil I used so all of the first leaves crumbled away. Now it looks as though I have miniture trees that are about 5 to 6 inches tall. All the growth is at the top and there is no branching out. One of the plants is an AK-47 and it is growing slower than the other ones that were bag seed. It was also burned a little more so I flushed it and it still grows really slow. The bag seed plants are about 5 weeks old and 5 to 6 inches tall. The AK-47 is 4 weeks old and about 3 inches tall.

I grow in the basement so it stays cool around 65 to 70 degrees F. I don't know what the temperature is in the soil. I am guessing a few degrees cooler. My PH is around 6.8.

When I get my 400 watt HPS should I see some improvement?

Please help.
