well we will do what we can to turn this plant around,
ill have to read back from page 1 to get a better idea of whats going on, the only methods ive used to grow is soil and dwc so the method used in this grow is not what im used to dealing with.
ill try and find someone who uses this method as they should be able to give some better advice, but if the plants 4 weeks old then you should really only be 2 weeks away from flipping it to 12-12, so it should be a fairly decent bush by now,
so im thinking the problem is with the root zone, either its not getting enough nutes, or its getting to much nutrients,
the other issues could be root temp, if the root temp is getting to high because of the lights then this can affect and slow down growth.
always remember the roots need oxygen as much as they need water, if i grew my plants in dwc but didnt have an air stone in the bottom of the pot then the roots would die and the plant would not grow, so using air stones means the roots are getting more oxygen than they need, this is why hydro and dwc is the fastest way to grow, hydro is giving the plant as much nutrients and oxygen as it can take so the plant grows much quicker, i know my dwc plant grow nearly twice as quick as my soil grown plants so i start my dwc plants a couple of weeks after i plant my soil grown plants as i know they will catch up pretty quick.
so if your root zone is constantly wet or to wet then the roots are not taking in the oxygen it needs, ive i overwatered my soil grown plants then my plants would look how yours looks, it wouldnt exactly die but growth would be none existant as the roots cant take in the nutrients it needs, so maybe how often you water and for how long needs looking at, let me see if i can find someone who can help.
