sativamanstarted grow question 4 years ago

5 days after flip I am realising my plants are too short. What is going to happen if I switch back to 24-0? Are they gonna be stunted for long?

You can re-veg her. Takes her long to flower. Revenging is no issue. Pre-flowered buds will turn to leave and later small useless branches. These will need to be trim off. Good luck

honestly, I wouldn't advise it most plants seem to hermie when the light schedule is switched after being flipped into flower, this will cause stress.

Heya! If you have strong genetics it shouldn't hermie and should go back to the veg state. Last time I re-vegged a plant that was already showing pistils it took about 2-3 weeks to start showing solid growth again. I don't think this will be the case with yours as you're only a week in. Cheers and good luck!

Hi, You can still turn your light to 24 or 18 and hope they can stretch a bit more but Your plants might or might not get stress and turn hermaphrodites. Happy harvest!!

Slow growing seedlings It has been 10 days after the seeds popped. In my eyes they look a bit small. Have I been watering too much? I gave them 3 day water break after spraying them every day twice. I also noticed fungus gnats, so i sprayed the soil with neem oil mix. Anything I have been missing?

One of the two grows slow, should I replace her? I have a northern light auto and White Widow auto, dont know which is which :/One of my girls grows very slow. (see pics). She looks healthy but like I said.. I had problem with heat, was 30 degrees daytemp the last few days. Other than that it's all fine. I spray them often and they have good lights. The other one receives the same care and grows well.

Slow growth I feel like she is developing slowly compared to other plants I've seen. She is almost 2 weeks in and still only has her first pair of leaves. What am I doing wrong? Should I start feeding her already? The lamp is at 30cms as per just now, it was at 60cm so far on 25%.

Praying cotyledons It was an helmet head for a week. didn't want to drop the shell. I helped it out two days ago and it was very difficult. I think it didn't had enough light. The other ones are more developed. This one is still behind and "praying". Watered this morning. Wedding glue strain.

I'm worried they will stay small , is there eny simple whey to slow down this process , they are outside.I need a bit of help. The leaves stopped showing yellow edges, the only thing that's strange they are Pheno's, and some 30-35cm tall, but the hulkberry is already showing signs of preflowering, do someone know a way to slow down a process, and help them gain some height and mass.

Short plants in flowering Flowering started but the plants still seem a bit short. Maybe too much or too close light? Or something else? Tried avoiding light off because its hard controlling the rise of humidity.
