Are you providing her with nutes whether it's on a schedule or even at 50% strength every other water?
Could just be genetics need more info. I've noticed that my ladies sometimes grow in spurts. They'll grow a lot, fast then slow for a few days then start up again. Could just need more time. I wouldn't worry they look nice and healthy. You have good tricome growth in your pics. Someone on here once told me, be careful you don't create problems that done really exist, sometimes new growers can have that problem.

Yes, switch switch switch! giving the plant the wrong nutrients, and she has been in bloom for a couple weeks at least! But hey that's why it is a learning experience :3
I guess for me, the rule of thumb I kinda go by; switch nutes when you notice that your plant isn't really growing anymore. Or, as soon as you start to see the small clusters of pistils.

Eph nutes are "nutrients" lol yes id switch to the bloom formula. Also just to reinforce what Trypp said only water when the soil is dry. I stick my finger in up to the knuckle and if its dry I water. Over watering could be stressing her out and making her slow her growth.
imo.

You want to switch nutes about a week after you first see the pre-flower pistils in your girls (if you are using a photoperiod plant/seed, since you know that the preflowers are showing ffrom YOU switching the light cycle). For auto flowers I switched my nutes when the plant started to show the clusters of pistils. A little bit before this point;

If you dont have bloom nutes I would suggest those as well. And please, I know you still haven't said anything back to me on it so I just want to make sure you know; BUY T5 Bulbs that are 3k spectrum range. It's red heavy which is what blooming gals need. You will notice a HUGE difference.
