Sativa signs in stretching phase

AS205started grow question 5 years ago

Girls started showing sativa signs in stretch phase. They entered week 3 of 12/12 and flower stage fully began, still they continue to stretch and is it normal to show not symmetrical stem stretching? Plants have 30% sativa in genetics

It looks like the standard indica stretch, your plants were 22 cm tall before thee stretch and now are 40 cm. If it were a sativa it would have tripled its size. It also has to do with the size of the pot you are using, a smaller pot will keep the final size in check. Ans it is very normal for some stems to grow more than others

Just make sure you have cut the N waaaaay down, and the plants should start focusing more on the buds. They might still gain a few inches, using up the N that the plant has already stored, but it should stop your nodes from spacing out like crazy.

You can control spacing with the light. Closer light tighter the spacing. It's normal for her to chase the light.

Did a res change last night and upped the ppm to 570. I use a combo of milli-Q water (5-7 ppB) and tap to get about 40-60ppm. Water temps are 65-66*F. This morning there is foam in the res and on the roots and root look bound up, HELP!

Hello guys! Overall the plant looks light green/yellowish and pretty small, with short internodes and bottom leaves with burnt and curled up tips. I give water every 3/4 days and commonly suggested fertilzers quantities. How can I let her recover and get bigger? Thanks :)

I am struggling with root rot in both my 20 gal reservoirs. Fixed light leaks 6 days ago (day 16) I included hydroguard in every reservoirs change and my water temps are pretty stable at 67-69 degrees f. I have 2 large air stones per 10gal water on highest setting. Any ideas?

I’m getting ready to use LST, which is why I planted not in the center of the pots (low box), placing the plant off the center of the pot does not harm the roots and crop?

Bushy Genetics How do you deal with a genetically bushy strain, especially if you plan to ScrOG? Do you knuckle up all nodes but the tips, then LST? Or let him grow and give him time? (My OG Kush needs some advice)

A shorter height sativa, but is it looking good so far? I noticed the tips of the 2nd node leaves getting a bit brown today, but I think its because I let it get too dry. Side root growth is lacking, but 2 long are out the of the bottom. Color is doing better after some adjusts

The bud site towards the lower middle of the plant. Should I get rid of them if they aren't keeping up with the taller buds or should I leave them to see if they catch up? I have upto 8-10 nodes per stem due to LST training

Plants very bushy / too short (?) 5w from seed; 35cm from (600W) LED lamp I'll put my question here as well for better visibility; Plants are very bushy and I'm not sure if I should prune subbranches or let them grow that way. I'm a little worried they'll lack space when they'll start flowering. It might be suboptimal as well. Thanks for helping me !
