F1 orion stop growing

Hi, I planted this F1 Orion autoflowering from rqs a few weeks ago.
Everything was fine until a few days that the plant stopped growing and the upper leaves rolled up.
I tried to buy a dehumidifier but it was useless, I gave it some calcium and nitro always with water ph 6\6.2
If I put the led on full power they curl even more. The soil is biomix light.
It's like the soil always stays wet and the roots don't absorb the water.
I don't know what to do. Do I change the soil? Should i flush it although I have never had good results with this operation?
Give me some advice because this is not the first time a plant suddenly stops growing.

Don't change the soil add fertilizers or flush. It's very important to have a gentle breeze over the plant canopy to help the plant transpire moisture. Run the dehumidifier and use an oscillating fan. Keep the leaves moving with a gentle breeze.

If you add anything wet at this point you will cause more problems. Let the soil dry well, before adding any kind of water. You have to practice a lot of patience with this problem.

Update. I really cant say if things are going good or what. I noticed some red coloring on some stems. Is it normal? The flowers are gonna grow or they gonna stay like this?

buds will grow , they just start ,
for the red stem it can be strain dependant or perhaps is it a bit cold in your room ?

It looks great. Growth stopped because it's an auto and it's flowering. That little redness in the stem isn't anything to worry about.
