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?

Buds Problems
At week 11, 12-12 hours were taken. Flowering was 7-10 degrees in the first 4 weeks. It's 18-20 degrees right now. Will it continue to grow?

Photo or auto 4ft tall 56 days no flower
1 out of 5 juicy fruit is still preflower and are 56 days. The one that is not flowering is almost 4 feet tall and is the biggest of them all. I can’t imagine that a plant with such fast growth is a photo. If it is I’ll be happy. Is it definitely a photo? Also it’s light sensitiv

Recover from tall seedlings
So I realized that my seedlings are pretty tall because of light deprivation. How much does this hinder? Do I follow the manufactures recommendation (30% @ 1ft) or increase it slightly (40%?) to compensate?

Growing to fast?
Is there such a thing as the plant growing too fast? It has quadrupled its height in as many days causing it to sort of flop to the side. The leaves are getting bigger but nowhere near the rate that it's growing taller. Is this normal for strawberry cough? #newtothis

I feel like this one is getting out of control I think bad gene from problem early and slow flowering? Any suggestions of what I can do? I want to wait and see how it turns out even if whispy bud but not if it's going to be at a detriment to the others they are smelling lovely

Plants too tall in back row.
The plant's in the back row are too tall. We cut the tops of the trellis boxes off about 18 inches. Even with LST I still think they're too tall. With the plants in pre-flowering (10 days) should we cut the top of the plants off or is this a bad choice? What do you recommend?

Let soil dry out too much or is it because they are stretching too much due to temp differences between night
We noticed the leaves a very light green colour and some were drooping slightly. We suspected overwatering so let them dry out for a night which seems to have corrected the colour however worried that we let them dry out too much? One plant was totally blew over by the fan. TIA

Too close to the “sun”(light).... any advice?
My plant grew close to 4x it’s original size during her stretch, 10-12” on day one of 12/12 to 46” tall. She’s on day 30 of flower and I set up a second ScrOG net. Other than blocking light to shorter plants, do you see any other potential problems this second net might cause?
