maybe your light is too close to the plant and it doesn't allow it to grow taller, and also maybe you should increase the light intensity if you can. let me know how things went for the sweet ladie. cheers

Main Stem Split On Two Strains In Same Environment
Main stock split for no apparent reason?? anyone had this happen with minimal to no stress on the side branches?? Wondering if I topped too low or should have tried to leave more stem from the last node. Growing hard and she just splits, I have seen this bending branches...😀👍🙏

Wedding glue auto stunted?
For this wedding glue auto from FB it has been 17days since seed in soil. It didn't shake of it's shell in the first 10 days so it runs late. Afterwards, the praying cotyledons opened up within 3 days after moisturizing it. Last watering 27/7. Still looks the same...

slow growth
I saw some diaries of the same Strawberry Chescake Auto, and in the second week they already have the second pair of leaves. I planted mine on 05/18 indoors and without any rooters and now they are showing the first signs of a second pair of leaves. This is normal?

How tall should seedlings be to be considered healthy and good?
How tall should seedlings be to be considered healthy and good? One of my plants (#1) did not stretch much during first week and I'm afraid this could impact on her growth on veg stage.

Any way to save my clones, and have healthy clones from these? I took these about 7 weeks ago and life got ahead of me. The plants these are from are great
I took these clones 7 weeks ago and never got around to transplanting them. As you can see, they are rootbound, stretched, and stunted. My question now is, is there any way I can make these clones usable? If not, it's a lesson for next time, but I want to use these clones.

My plant has entered in preflowering stage. It is an automatic from fastbuds. The thing is that it is really small and it has not even reached 3 weeks yet. Is this something I have to worry about? Will the growth get stucked or will it continue developing?

Pale and tiny autos, insufficiencies?
Hi! These are my bf's autos. They're 4 week old. They are in cannabis soil (peat, perlite) with no additional supplements. About 10 hrs/day of direct sunlight. They're very pale and tiny and have some spots. What's the problem and how to solve it? Thank you! :)

Stunted plant or genetically impaired?
Hello, first indoor grow. I’ve got 6 seedlings, germinated the 18th. All the same strain(OG Kush) and same growing techniques medium etc. One is way smaller, has been since germ, with staggered growth. Possible explanations? Genetics? Comparison vs healthy plant in photo. Thanks!

Is there any point in growing these or should I start again?
Are these worth keeping? I view other people’s diaries on here and theirs seem to be at the stage mine are in the first and bigger in their second week, maybe I am just feeling disheartened. I’m not sure whether I am being too hard on myself or there is generally not much point

Are my plants short? Please I need help and advice. Thank you!
Hello everybody, this is my first grow so that's why i have so many doubts. One guy told me that my plants are short for being 6 weeks old. They are 6 weeks old since they started to germinate. Do you think they should be bigger? What do you think I did wrong? Thank you!
