Weak and too long stalk?

bigbrotherstarted grow question 4 years ago

Stalk looks to be very thin and weak. The head (leafs) seems to be kind of too heavy for the plant. It was very long too but I added some more soil for more stability. There was a short time without sun because I was not at home. It doesn't looks like other people's plants. Is it all fine?

Yes it stretched out because as you said it didn't have the light. Support it like you have, give it lots of light and if or when you can repot it - bury most of the weak stem (roots will grow from it once buried) good luck!

I'd probably try to re pot it and bury it almost up to it's cotyledons. The stem will grow new roots underground after you do this.. will help with that stretch .. Happy growing! 👊

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?

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?

While watering this week I noticed a fair amount of roots surfacing in all of my plants (pic in week 6 of veg). Is this is a result of healthy rooting or signs of an issue? Leave exposed or cover em up? Inclined to leave as is for oxygen.

This is my first time using the FloraNova series and I feel like it's doing a good job. Are the dark-stained roots normal for this series? My roots couldn't look healthier overall now, but I still don't know if the off coloring is still from the root rot.
