Monday: Week started with just keeping up with the LST. I think im doing an okay job with the training. I am real worried with shocking the girls too much by constantly tying branches down i dont want to shock/stunt her too much. I defoliated 1-2 still on some plants, just the leaves that are shooting straight into the soil.
Wednesday: Still training and adjusting daily but i think im running into a cal mag deficiency, wind or nute burn i dont really know. It could also be bugs.
Thursday: Lst still going good. Minor defoliation this morning. I think i have a PH problem, my run off is reading 5.2 PH going in is around 6.5. when i water tonight i plan on just doing PH'd water and cal mag because I dont believe they look as healthy as they should.
Lighting, heat, soil content/nutrients/additives are the main factors in stretching, as they affect hormonal balance.
It's not just light that causes stretching.
Yours doesn't seem to be stretching particularly excessively, probably just wants a little more light. If you want to you can top up the soil a bit and it'll just grow some more roots from the stem.
What am I dealing with? PH problem, nutrient, light or wind burn? Bugs?
Lights are 20 inches away from plants ph going in is 6.5 run off is low at 5.2 ppm is around 700-800
They look good. Don't think you got anything to worry about. If your feeding a Ec of 1.8 to an auto you may run into problems as they don't tend to like strong feeds, but if your giving that and there are no signs of over feed then carry on as you are.
