It will be 6 weeks this Thursday (Jan. 25) since the seeds cracked. I'm disappointed in the size of my plants compared with other success stories that I see online. Please look at the attached pictures and give me some idea of what I might be doing wrong.

I'm a first-time grower
The color of the leaves looks good
The roots are great
I don't know the strain of seed; got them from a friend who got them from Amsterdam. He doesn't remember the strain. Do some strains start slower than others?


Full Nutrients for seedlings. [watering twice a day, 1 hour each time]
Daytime temp. 70 F average
Nighttime temp. 55 F average
Transferred starter cubes into 8" pots because roots were sprouting out all sides of the cubes.
Lights on 18 hours/day [3 sets of double flourescent] 1 in each set is "warm"
I added a heating pad for seedlings 20"x20". [thinking nighttime temp might be a little low]
