started grow question 6y ago
They look quite small in height but I had to bury the girls up to there neck a few times because they were really leggy and tall , I had the cfl bulbs like 30 inches away then realised they were not anywhere close enough to the bulb

Exactly what you should have done. It'll eventually grow roots when deprived of light and exposed to moisture over time.

Good move. You can keep that cfl bulb 2-3 inches away.

Will this branch hold? Newbie
Currently 10 days in too flower. I’m worried that this branch will snap at one point. Did I over do LST? I laid it flat to counter balance it from the main stem.

How to manage a tall plant with a thick stem in week 1 of flowering?
One plant I ordered online was pre-grown. Now, it’s about 20 cm taller than my other plants. At the top, the taller plant gets more than 1000 PPFD, while the lower canopy gets about 500 PPFD. It’s currently week 1 of flowering. The stem is too thick to bend down.What would youdo?

What could cause a Gelato to grow only popcorn buds?
This is, luckily, not my plant but the sister of my Gelato Auto which for a long time did not want to grow. The pictured one did, but ver strangely: Thin, weak, extremely long branches carrying a multitude of popcorn buds. Grower is experienced. Any ideas about the cause?

Getting leggy?
Is Thursday 4/16 stalk too leggy? Should I already repot so that it's deeper, covering more stalk under soil?

Weak Stem
I watered today with my sprayer & one of my plants fell over, is this damping off or am I supposed to prop it up somehow? The other ones are fine.

How tall can grow Durban Posion in late flowering?
Hi, what do you think, how tall can this plant grow? It is 4th week of flowering, and she already stretched out two times in size after switching lights. The distance from light is 30cm. The light is 65W LED. Also, what do you think about bud fattening? More light needed?
Buds. Not fattening

Will she be ok
1 and a half weeks into flower this thing is so big it's scary! I don't know what to expect from the stretch. With training though do you guys think she'll be fine?

Seedling
Started the germination process 02/11/22 They sprouted 4 days later I then transplanted the n a 5 ltr fabric pot Haven’t given it feed as waiting for more leads to come maybe next week. The purple lemonade seem to be stretching I’m guessing they trying to find more intensity

Should I bend the top or should growth stop? There are a few centimeters left to the limit and I won't be able to raise the light anymore.

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?

This is my first mainline so I am looking for any feedback/suggestions on how it looks so far and what type of yield to potentially expect? 1 week into flower. Does it look too tall or stretched?
