Should I lift my lights?
GreenFingeredLTstarted grow question 5y ago
I've been slowly lowering them as the plant grows, now I'm starting to get nodes but they're pretty close together (see grow question image)
Wondering if I should lift the lights to encourage stretching or leave them alone
General health check would be awesome too 😄

That little girl is looking great! I'd say, your lighting should be fine at that height. She doesnt seem stressed at all. Some plants start out with tight internodes like that, even different phenotypes, under the same lighting, can produce vastly different spacing. I have 2 criticals from dinamed growing that show this off very well.
Cheers and happy growing

Hi there, Your plant looks healthy to me.For light distance, I will leave them alone if she doesn’t show any sign of heat stress.Also you should support the seedling.So that she can’t fall off accidentally.Happy growing... ✌️

Plants very bushy / too short (?) 5w from seed; 35cm from (600W) LED lampI'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 !6y ago

Height of plantAll 3 of my plants are different sizes. Next time I’m only gonna grow one strain at a time unless there’s a way to speed up the growth of the other two. I have a yellow spectrum light I was using for veg that I can put on the left of my grow tent & then put the flowering light?Leaves. Too few
Plant. Too short

or is it related to the cm led (formally tall trees leds) lighting at 2" above the lights or geneticsWeek 4

Assymetrical stem growthHey, does anyone know what is this a sign of? It's the second plant I grow that starts growing like this at some point. One node below is symmetrical, new node is unsymmetrical. Is it from the heat stress? Or from the stretching to reach the light? Stress or not?Week 7

White Widow Stuck on Second NodeWhite Widow Fem from Seedsman not growing anymore tops after the second node? The two fan leaves on the second node look like they are not branching off and are stuck together and there is no more growth coming from the top of the stem. Fairly new grower but never seen this.Plant. Spaces between nodes

Pytanie ogolneWitam mam pytanie czy to normalne? :) Odstęp między węzłami nie jest zbyt duży? Jakoś wydaje mi się że jest zbyt duży. Dzień 28 weg. Jest przed faza kwitnienia ale to chyba jeszcze nie czas na wyciąganie i taki odstęp. Wszystkim dziękuję za odpowiedź.Other. General questions

Why is my girl so bushy and how to make her stretch? Thanks!Hi guys, so she's 29 days old. I feel like light and air can't get in, she's covering her new growth with her big fat fan leaves. I don't think it has to do with distance to the light because I tried being 40cm above and now 75cm, she just keeps growing wider, DLI 25 ~ 15k LUX 😽2y ago
