Abstract: For an indeterminate moment problem we denote the orthonormal polynomials by P_n. We study the relation between the growth of the function P(z)=(sum_{n=0}^infty|P_n(z)|^2)^{1/2} and summability properties of the sequence (P_n(z)). Under certain assumptions on the recurrence coefficients from the three term recurrence relation zP_n(z)=b_nP_{n+1}(z)+a_nP_n(z)+b_{n-1}P_{n-1}(z), we show that the function P is of order alpha with 0<alpha<1, if and only if the sequence (P_n(z)) is absolutely summable to any power greater than 2alpha. Furthermore, the order alpha is equal to the exponent of convergence of the sequence (b_n). Similar results are obtained for logarithmic order and for more general types of slow growth. To prove these results we introduce a concept of an order function and its dual. We also relate the order of P with the order of certain entire functions defined in terms of the moments or the leading coefficient of P_n
