Hi there, another newbie. We started with three plants - 2 x Gorilla Glue and 1 x Nepalese.
Please see photos - all three plants have basically stopped growing. We started the grow outside and it was taking forever, 3 months to get to point of photo.
We then decided to do an indoor set up, the plants have grown slightly, however it looks like something has gone wrong as it is now 4 months.
PH of soil is good. I don’t think we under or over watered. They were in good sunlight each day and brought inside at night to protect from bugs.
Any thoughts?? I would love to know before I start a second grow with Girl Scout.
Quick tip: Pests can hide in leafs thats fall off the plant and land in the pot near the roots. I like to run my fingers through the top of soil to clean out leafs and pests. It leaves the plant with a nice zin garden effect.
They look weedy and hungry to me. What is your PH like and your runoff PPM.

Are you sure the seeds didn’t get mixed up cause you wouldn’t have ended up with a male full of seeds if it started from fem seeds, are you sure the place you got seeds gave you fem seeds. Looks like they needed alot more light and they got really tall. I would throw away unless you want the seeds.
What kind of light did have for seedlings? You need to watch for the pollen sacs like you have as soon as you see one throw towel or sheet over it and take outside. If you want to collect pollen that’s another deal down the road, let’s see if we can get you growing first. Do you know what type led light you have, maybe it has how many watts on a sticker on light. Finding out how strong your light is will help figure out how far away it needs to be from plants. I’m no expert but fellow growers on here can help with anything they got me thru my 1st very grow and only 6 weeks till I harvest again. If I don’t know answers you need I’ll help you find someone to help.
Maybe you can get some seeds from the female (she is heavily seeded) if you can keep her alive a little longer, other than that, throw the males out and clean out the polllen they spewed everywhere and start over. Nothing worth smoking there.
SORRY MY MISTAKE - the gorilla glue is the first pic the smaller plant. Hopefully we can pull it through to some healthy life and gets some buds or seeds of it???
I suspect your soil/compost mix wasn’t helping with the grow speed and possible watering habits contributed to slow and stunt your plants because those plants are tiny and have very few leaf sets. Your light is not really up to the job of lighting a 3x3 area at only 150 true watts, adding another one would help. And the whole moving outside/inside thing, who knows what kind of pests are eating at your roots. And the yello/light green leaves, not enough nutrition.
If you really want to grow some buds, do the following.
Get more or better lighting
Use decent soil like Fox Farms Happy Frog or Ocean Forest, or Promix HP or MP, your soil/compost mix wasn’t giving them the nutrients they need
Use a complete fertilizer when needed (Fox Farms, Advanced Nutrients, Earth Juice, Bergmans, lots to chose from.
If you want to save the female, put her directly under the light, throw the males out (they’ve already done their job of pollinating the female) and then feed her some nutes and probably could use some CalMag as well, she’s starving. Also ph your water/nute mix to 6.5 and see if you can finish her off to get the seeds and little bit of bud.
The mars ts 1000 should provide great results flowering up to about 4 ft². So a 2x2 or something like that. Larger space is really asking it to do a lot.
I’m not sure why I feel like I see sacks in all of those pictures?
