It doesn't look bad for 2 weeks mate, growth is always slow for the 1st 2-3 weeks then it will start rapid vegetative growth.

I'd put the light up to about a meter until the plant starts rapid vegetative growth, I can't really tell you when to switch to 12/12 as I don't know the size of your growing area or what style you want to grow the plant but I'm assuming as you are using a 600w that you have at least a meter square and if that is the case I would veg her out big. do lots of training to bush her out and be patient at least wait until you see pre flowers.

yes now light 1meter and what need to do when start rapid vegetative growth ? light should be closer ? my grow area width 1meter 20cm height 2meter

Yeah when they start vegetative growth go back to around 70cm, I would highly recommend starting a grow journal you will receive lots of friendly help.

One of the factors why she is short is she is an Indica strain. I think she looks rather healthy so dont worry sir.

They start off slow up top but underneath its biilding a big root structure. Its about to take off though. Give it a little time.
