Micro growing?
How to keep things short? Very limited height. Tried "Short" photoperiod strains, small containers, short veg time, close as possible to availible lights. Going to try everything stated but also topping several times without recovery time?! Any suggestions?

How many watts do I need for my small tent?
I am using a full spectrum LED that draws only 30W from the wall but it might be too weak since my plant is getting lanky. I have moved it closer to the plant but now I am afraid of over-heating. How many watts LED would be sufficient for my 40cmX40cmx120cm tent?

Twisting, yellowish, drooping leaves
Soil: Nectar of the Gods (4shot) Nutes: Nectar of the gods (exact on my page) I'm almost positive I've been overwatering but what do I do now lol? How do I get my plants to perk up? Do I wait it out? I've also brought my light down 2 and a half feet due to stretching.

Effect of cold temps during seedling stage?
Anyone have any idea how cold temps would affect my growth this early? I tossed my 3 day old seedlings into their pots (started in a Jiffy pellet), and the temp went from 70 to 60 and stayed that way ever since... Thanks!

Help! Green Bean Giant
I have one plant in my first set dwarfing all hell out of my other four in the set, and the remaining plants in my tent. I'm trying to get opinions on what to do with her. She's about 35in comparable to the next tallest around 18-20. Still waiting in my bigger tent to move all.

When to harvest?
I’m not sure when to harvest? The buds don’t seems to be getting any bigger. It’s my first grow. I’m starting to get yellowing leaves at the bottom of my plants, the buds are getting frost, but under a microscope the trichomes are all clear there’s no trace of orange.

Sehen sie gesund aus oder spargeln sie zu sehr?
Hallo das ist mein erster Grow Versuch mit 3x Cookies Gelato Automatics, bis jetzt sind sie nur ziemlich in die Höhe gewachsen so das ich gestern nochmal Erde nachgegeben habe um sie etwas zu stabilisieren. Die Blätter kommen langsam aber ich Frage mich ob es soweit gut aussieht?

Plant taller than it should be by 3ft
I have been growing ILGM auto northern lights and they are growing far taller than they should. I plan to try 'topping' my current one (2 weeks old atm) but am wondering if this is the only solution. Ive made changes to my soil and a new light thinking it may be 'stretching'.

Brown spots on autos. Halfway thru week 5. Also, stretching rlly bad, under same conditions
Brown spots? It's on the plant on the left. Both the same strain, and autos, but I topped the one on the left. Its been growing too quickly tbh and just wanted to try to have an even canopy. Been feeding them fox farms veg nutes. About to switch. Dose her with cal mag maybe?

This plant is way to tall
I am growing in a basement and one of my Sativa plants is over 5 1/2 feet tall. I can move the light another 4-5 inches up- but that's it. I was worried about this plant so I flipped her a few weeks ago- and boy did she stretch. I am scared shitless of topping her.
