carneiromariana13started grow question 5y ago
Hey guy, this is my second grow journey and my plant it's getting into the second week with +/- 3 inches and it's stretched with a pale stem.

She’s perfectly fine👍 She just stretched a bit from lack of light. But it’s no big deal at this point, just try and get a bit more light on her if you can so she doesn’t stretch anymore. The stake was the rite thing to do, just keep her up rite and get her some more light and all will be fine. Cheers💨

Needs more light in the 4000k range (strong blue) low light or light in a too red a spectrum (2700k) will cause this.

Light is the number one cause of stretching in seedlings, it needs more light. Happy growing.

My seedling just fell overAll of the sudden a healthy looking seedling decided to fall/bend over, it does have the thinnest stem of them all. Why is this happening and how can I prevent it with my other seedlings? Outside temperature is 24⁰ and I water them twice a day with pH-balanced water

Mold on stem (outdoor)Hello guys!
One plant of a friends outdoor grow is looking not so good. On two stems there are spaces without bark, and on one spot is even some mold.
Almost looks like someone removed it with a knife.
Any diagnosis, tips or other help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot!

Droopy plantFirst thought over watered in a fabric pot feeding 3ml a day in 1L ph’d water, 24 hours later no improvement. Now I’m pushed to a nitro excess or a feed excess as most leaves are shiney solid green. Still using oldtimer grow as 5 days into flower. Should I flush and move to bloom

Weak and too long stalk?Stalk looks to be very thin and weak. The head (leafs) seems to be kind of too heavy for the plant. It was very long too but I added some more soil for more stability.
There was a short time without sun because I was not at home.
It doesn't looks like other people's plants.
Is it all fine?Week 4
