I don’t think it is topping itself, if it’s an auto flower your at the stage where your starting flowering. The branches will start to stretch and the bud sites start to become off set from each other. Totally normal for this stage of your growth. Cheers💨

Why dont my plants grow towards the middle/light and instead concentrate near the walls?Looks like my plants are growing towards the wall and not towards the middle where the light should be the best. Why do the plants behave like that and what should I do? Raise the net, rotate some of the plants, then redo the net? Remove the net completely? leave it as it is?

Besides the outdoor light hours being enough for Veg, How can I help to keep her in vegetative stage?I was expecting about 30 days left to Veg.
