Short, Bushy, Tight Node Spacing
THC123started grow question 4 years ago
My plants seem to be staying shorter and getting very bushy. Node spacing is super tight. Using a “2000 watt” LED that’s pulling 430W from the wall with the Veg and Bloom light both on. Should I turn bloom off? Or move the light a bit further away? Thoughts?

They look about like mine were when I started out. I felt the exact same way! I use two 240 w led full spectrum cobs. I moved my lights up probably another 10 inches and it helped them stretch up a bit more! Try it out. Check out my first grow for tips tricks and to learn what not to do! Cheers and happy growing!

Thanks everyone! I’m going to turn bloom back on and move the light up 10”. See what happens. I can see that an indica would be shorter as well, so that makes sense. I’m going to top it tomorrow, so I went out to look at the nodes today and I was like “hm... tough to tell what is what in there” haha. Hopefully defoliating will take some of the weight off the plant as well. Again, thanks for the answers, cheers!

Bonjour,
Sous led la croissance peut etre plus longue et combien de lumen dégage tes LED ?
Laisse la grandir et je pense que tu n'as pas a t'en faire elle va continuer de grandir.

With the bloom on they will stay more compacted. You want a little stretch then turn her off and do raise the light a little

What happens to my autos ? Too much fertilizer ? Nutrient block ?First week I tried the devil and fertilized my autos as little as possible, knowing it was useless... Big mistake.
After that I could see signs of too much fertilizer, i.e. pointed leaves and since then, slow growth with very small leaves. What has happened?

Dark leaves and short/compact plant18 days from seedling. Dark and a bit rumpled/twisted leaves. Branches are coming out but they don't have much space to breathe from the big leaves. Started topping with some chicken manure pellets, too much nitrogen? Also, the 36W LED lamp is only 20 cm away.

Northern Lights Auto, quite short and bushy, fan leaves shielding light - should I defoliate?First time grower with a quite short Northern Lights Auto in week 6. The fan leaves seem to shield a lot of light from the inner leaves, also touching ground. Should I trim the fan leaves? Or should I keep them, since it already seems stressed enough for it's short life…

Why didn't my plant stretch?Why is my Wedding Glue Auto so short? She's healthy as can be. The issue here is that she is in day 30 with zero signs of upward growth and only 5.5" tall. Can I fix this somehow? Huge leaves though. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
Look at the diary to see.

Induce stretch in a short plant.After much research, I couldn't find anything on how to properly handle a really short plant. Does anyone have a thought about this? Or how to induce extra stretch? This is for documentation and research for this particular grow situation. Please see week 5 entries. Thanks all!Week 5

No change in growth. Shall I get rid ?I've given them 3 days under raised humidity and I haven't noticed a change at all. I just don't feel they are worth my time anymore, something is not right and I don't know what. They should start flowering soon and it's nowhere near ready to, it's tiny. Anyone else agree ?Week 3
