Is my setup good?

[ktb420]

Im a new grower and this is my first plants to make it this far. I planted all outside in the early summer hoping to grow outdoors. After a while outside, they seemed to stop in growth so I decided to move indoors. I currently have my plants under 2 flurecent lights (very close to the plant) on a light schedule of 24/24. I believe I have been over watering a little so I'm cutting back on water right now. My biggest plant is only 9 inches for some reason?? I know it should be a lot bigger... I'm feeding it Miracid once a week now and the soil is very compressed, what could I do to make better?? Add new soil?? Also my pots are 6 inches by 6 inches, should I look into bigger pots?? By the way, the temp is 75 degrees. All help is appreciated.

those look nice, i think ur alrite just dont over water and change ur light cycle to 16/8 for a while then go to 12/12 but im new too so dont take my advice as concrete

i suggest more light, bigger pots, and an 18/6 light cycle, moving on to 12/12 when they are about twice that size. Also try a better feed, (ie. Bio-Grow). Good luck man.

If you do decide to move to bigger pots I would be extremely careful. You have already caused stress by moving from outside to in, and moving pots would cause more. I would say for now those are good size pots. How many watts are the 2 lights you are using? On watering just make sure they arent super wet all the time. Wait till a little below the surface soil is dry and then water slightly.

it is very compact and that is not neccesarily bad, it mte just be the strain, also, compact plants are known for some good compact bud!

Well the other day I changed the soil so I don't know if I caused to much stress? When I was finished with the soil, I watered it a little too much and the plant looks very droopy... I took a pencil and made holes into the soil hoping to give the roots some air, for some reason the soil is still very wet... I'll get pic's in a little while.

I suggest more light possibly depending on the wattage of the ones you have. on a 16/8 cycle. STOP OVERWATERING thats really killer on em. you really shouldn't have changed the soil, thats actually more stressful then you probably imagine. As a matter of fact since the plants are so small i would have started over instead of changing them from outdo to indo.

Those plants look kinda sad. you need more light with a cycle 18/6 not 24/24 (what is 24/24 even? 24 hours light 24 hours dark?), less water, and a fan blowing on them. I suggest you read up before your next grow http://www.sharprubberduck.com
