Shagrathanswered grow question 5y ago
Hi!
You can dig the seedling deeper and bury up until cotyldeons are only above the ground and then lower your light a bit to avoid stretching.
When you bury the stem it will eventually grow full of roots1!

Drop your light and when you or if you transplant just put her down a bit deeper or pile up some soil around her! Hopefully this helps! Happy Growing! 👊

Suggestions? To tall?First time trying SOG.
Multiple plants turned male so not as much of a "sea" as I wanted. The ones that are left are extremely tall. It feels like they are to tall.
Should I have kept the lights lower to stop them from stretching as much?
Any other suggestions for SOG growth?

They are too big and I have not so much space remaining, what should I do ?68 cm already and only 25cm of height available (with the actual scrog), I just flipped to 12/12. Should I keep on scrogging or top all the heads ? I don't really know where to top as I removed some of the bigger leaves on one side. Thx !

enlonged budsThe younger plant has developed flowers in an enlonged shape. The plant herself has grew a lot during her cycle (plant on the left day 72) and I can't understand the reason. Maybe some stress due to the hot temperature in the box during the veg (30ºC as peaks sometimes).Any idea?

Long and Spindly girlBubbles 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?Plant. Too tall

Let soil dry out too much or is it because they are stretching too much due to temp differences between nightWe 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

Plant stakes for heavy branches???Do you add structural support to branches before they form buds? People have warned me to add structure to my plant ASAP. I don't see a lot of photos of plants with stakes. My plant is really tall & I didn't train it because I was scared to break it & horizontal space limited.4y ago

Same tent, same seeds package, same germination method, same soil, same light but big height difference. What could it be? Thanks 💚Hi guys, what do you think could be the reason for such a difference in heights at this stage? The short one sprouted 12h earlier and you can probably see is a little ahead in nodes/leaves development but stayed low. I even tried switching them places in the tent a few days ago.
