Seedlings have stopped growing

[Lucasf38]

My seedlings have suddenly stopped growing, I'm new to all this so need some help lol I'm using CFL bulbs at the min and the seedling seemed to be doin okay but for last 3 days there's been no apparent growth, I've kept them well watered and under 24/7 light wot else could be causing this to happen ? I've recently changed pots but there was growth after doing this so I don't believe this is the cause of my problem, also I don't have any thermometer so can't check the temp but know that CFL's don't give off too much heat so was wondering if it's not warm enough?

hi Lucas and welcome to the best place on earth
It is a bit difficult to help without pictures and more info. what strain? What medium?
I can give a general idea. If your babies are healthy, maybe they are growing roots an therefor you don't see any growth on top ?

CFL can be placed very close without problems. How many W in them?

Hi Angrybird thanks for the reply yea sorry for no pics not really sure how to add a pic lol I'll try anyway and tbh I'm not sure on the strain my pal dropped me round a hand full of mixed seeds, I've got them u see 3 20w CFL's an keep them as close as I can I've got a 400w hps also but not using that at min, all I've done is gove them water an 24/7 light an all of a sudden they jus stopped !

Hello My friend. can you post a picture of the plant?

That way it would be easier to help you out.
I am on My first grow but from what i learnt i think your plants is working on the root system and thats why the dont grow very much right now. When the roots starts to fill up the pot the plants will explode in growth. When My plants was about 2 weeks old from seed My leaves Also pointed up, but i was told that the plant is very happy when it does like that.

But as i Said i am on My first grow, upload a picture and i think the more experienced growers can help you out.

Your welcome. 420mag is amazing, the people in here are very friendly and helpful.

To Me, you plants look as healthy as they can be so i think they work on the roots right now.

You should start a grow journal mate, that way you will get more help. Post a link to the journal here when you have started one and i will subb in and help you as much as i can on the way

Hi
Blue gave you the starter so you just need to know, DO NOT water too much.
She looks healthy, do you have more holes in the pot? anything that will make roots breathe? perlite etc?

looking good

How could I increase growth I've currently got them on 18/6 using CFL but the growth seems slow

You can go to 20/4 light cycle. CFL takes more time, that is why most growers go with stronger lights.

 

[Lucasf38]

Okay thanks I'll try that an see how it goes !

Morning guys I've woke thismorning checked on the babies they seem to be doin good jus on two of them the bottom leaves have began turning yellow at the tips is this due to mute burn or to much heat!?? I've only been giving them the smallest amount of miracle grow mixed with rain water...! Also last night wen I went to turn lights off I noticed a lot of the leaves were curling in but after 6 hours of dark they have returned to normal could this also be heat stress!!? Help pls lol fist grow so doin my best with wot I have accessible !!! I will enclose photos any feedback will be greatly appreciated . also could someone tell me if this is good growth for 13 days!
