I want to share my 1st grow with you and ask for your help for upcomimg possible problems. Here is the chronological pics of my ladies(i hope they are)
I am using
100*10w chipsets led and a.n. ph perfect micro grow bloom.
Biobizz lightmix some additional perlite and a little layer of worm casting on the top.

I had slow growth problem and with advices i decrease the height of the light to the 20'' now. I hope they get on well.

Hey brotha. I'll sub in. Plants look nice and healthy. How many days from popping up are they? What kind of light you rocking?

I am using 100*10w led with 200w actual consumption and it's been 27 days from sprouting as far as i remember.

Should be more than enough power for your space and three plants. Do seem like they are starting slower but could just be the beans. Be patient they look healthy so keep on doin.
These two are same strain popped on same day.

Both are healthy and in same environment but one is just a better seed. As a matter of fact for the first 28 days the little one was in the middle of the light and the big one was at the edge.
Once they catch fire though. I bet they take off like rockets.

Thank you so much

Here is an update. My skunk has dead unfortunately. I replaced the pot with a bag seed baby plant.
Any comment?

I think that light may be stronger than first thought. Looks like they are having heat or light stress. What's the temp like in there at the canopy?

It is around 27 - 28 °C

It is around 27 - 28 °C

And humidity about 40-50%

Should i move the light up?

How far is the light currently from your canopy? I'd recommend 24"~

About 19-20" from top of the plants

 

[volunteer]

I have set them 24".

 

[HortiShorti]

I have set them 24".

See if that makes any difference!

Another question, what is your watering cycle like? How often do you water?

 

[Dabby Duck]

Temp seems good. So I would move up the light right now I'm at 26 inch from canopy. Day 31 ish.

 

[volunteer]

I water almost daily with small amounts

Most soil growers I see let them dry out between watering so as to not get salt build up causing lock outs.

I water as a circle around plant as suggested. Still should wait this area to dry ?

 

[Dabby Duck]

In soil I would. Best not to get any build up. Shouldn't take too long to dry though.

I would definitely wait for the soil to dry up to the first 2 inches or so in between waterings.. I go sometimes 4 days between waterings. I'm gonna go ahead and say that your plants show signs of overwatering instead of heat/light stress. Have you noticed any sorts of black flies in your area? Overwatering can cause a plethora of issues ranging from slow development, drooping leaves and fungus gnats (the gnats themselves are not cause for concern, rather it's the larva that exist and eat within the top layer of soil that cause damage)

Give your babies some time to dry out and get a little air to the roots they'll love it, I promise.
