It's not getting enough light. Bury the stem up to the cotyledons (it will root) that will help make it more stable and increase its root mass. Are you growing on a windowsill?

Possibly trying to find more light and not enough wind to create a thicker stem?

Will this be ok?
My plant is 3 days old and is already 100mm (4 inch) tall. I started this with a plant already in my tent so its a fair distance from the light. Should i keep it going or just start over when the other plant is finished?

Bonjour, je me demande si je peux faire partir un auto-floraison en 12/12 pendant les 3 premières semaines puis la passer en 18/6 ? Est ce que quelqu'un a déjà essayer ? Quelle sont les risques?

Size matters??
After one week the Cheese and the LSD got pretty fast to 3-4cm in height where as the big bang, which started developping its first node and the second one is still very short. This has to do with the pot size, the genetics or both?

Flower Stretch and Mainlining
Flower Stretch Question When I flip to flower, she will stretch and about double in size. Does this include all the bare growth I have cleared off during toppings? ie, if the stalk at the bottom is 12" from the bottom to the start of the last topping, does that 12" count in?

Too hot?
Worried that these are not growing too fast. Do they look OK? Does it look like these plants are getting too much heat outside? Temps have been in the 90's but they don't seem to be reacting poorly
