Germination
4 years ago
Planted May 20th. Germination appeared above soil as of May 24th. Photo from May 25th. May 29th, Bubbles is long and stringy. Not liking this. I moved the light closer and also have it going 19 on 5 off right now. She is just stretching for the stars it seems. Not sure how to correct that.

Bubbles is stretching quite far. Long and spindly. This isn't good as she can't hold her head up anymore. I've lowered the grow light and also have the light going 19 on and 5 off for the grow day. What can I do to help her out at this point?
Solved
Plant. Too tall

The light being closer will help. For now you can use garden wire as a splint. Just make a small circle and then put a 90 degree bend in the wire and stick in in the soil as far away from the stem as you can and let the stem rest in the circle you made. When you go to transplant, just bury the stem and leave the top couple inches out and it will grow strong. Hope that helps you and happy growing!!!

As can be seen in the photo, she is still a bit spindly and stringy. I made a loop of wire to hold her upright so she can grow nice and strong.

Well, this one died on me. There was nothing I could really do for her. I'm not sure what caused it, but the conditions in the tent seemed pretty good. I thought maybe over watering, but I let it dry up a bit, and it just faded faster. I gave it a bit of water, no luck. I was thinking maybe the pot was too small. Will have to try again.
