    Looks like the ph is off. How close do you have the lights?

    About 4 inches away from it I'm trying to get a smal crop should I change it to 12/12?

    Get it closer. Get it as close as possible. Aim for about an inch at most.

    No but if you put the light closer, you should see more growth. What kind of water are you using?

    HEY! so some info. for you my friend. 18/6 light cycle is the most common for vegetative growth. there is another cycle called 12/1, but I won't delve into that here. You want to keep your cfl lights 1-3 inches away for optimal growth. what's the output of your cfl? Your normally want 100W per plant with cfl. When you are ready to start flowering change your light cycle to 12/12. I would also recommend to stop using miracle grow. When you do change to 12/12 it'll take 4-5 days for hormone balances to change up so give it time to see results. Your flowering time for the plant will most likely be 8 weeks, though it could take upto 12; though unlikely. There are also 2 cfl spectrums, 6500k and 2700k if I'm not mistaken. it might be 2300k not 2700k... but that's beside the point. the 6.5k is best for vegging and the 2.7k have a better spectrum on light for flowering. I'd probably go another month before putting it onto 12/12 just because it's still so small. Once you introduce more light and closer light it'll start growing much more rapidly.

    Also if possible filter your water if its tap water. That can fuck with pH I hear..

    As she dries out it will perk right back up. Don't fret

    oh man! It's way to big for that cup. It was time to transplant that to a few gallon pot. The roots have probably filled it all up. use a razor blade to cut open the outside of the plastic cup to get it out perfectly. then you can massage it a little to spread the roots a bit..
    also what nutrients are you feeding it/how much light a day is it getting?

    I transplanted them 3 weeks ago and today they look like its ginna die
