stretchy seedling
ondrasekcoufalstarted grow question 4 years ago
Hi i’m growing next to a window with approximately
10 hours of light + 4 hours of light from a 4W led bulb.
The plant is kind of stretchy, not falling over but I added a stick for safety just in case. Is it healthy? Will it be normal and recover?
I’m worried a lot. What to do?

Hey Mate,
your Damsel has too less light, that´s why she´s stretching. Maybe you wanna have a closer distance to you r LED, if possible. Get a fan and give her a very slight breeze to strenghten her stem. Although it would have another advantage, because of the movement due to the wind she will not grow so fast.
Good luck for the rest of the way!
Servus!👍

It will probably be ok, but its not getting enough light. For sunlight, they would prefer to have 8 hours of direct sun. I'm guessing you may get half of that in your window? Also if your indoor lighting is hitting it at night then it's dark cycle is interrupted.
Itll probably live but it will be scraggly.

Too close to the “sun”(light).... any advice?My plant grew close to 4x it’s original size during her stretch, 10-12” on day one of 12/12 to 46” tall. She’s on day 30 of flower and I set up a second ScrOG net. Other than blocking light to shorter plants, do you see any other potential problems this second net might cause?

Hey guys! It's really fun to be back again, this is my second grow. I'm kinda desperate for answers now, because the roots have started to come out of the bottom of the Airpots, as you can see on a picture I uploaded. Is this going to cause root problems?
any overall opinion?thxWeek 6

This is my first time using the FloraNova series and I feel like it's doing a good job. Are the dark-stained roots normal for this series?
My roots couldn't look healthier overall now, but I still don't know if the off coloring is still from the root rot.Week 8

enlonged budsThe younger plant has developed flowers in an enlonged shape. The plant herself has grew a lot during her cycle (plant on the left day 72) and I can't understand the reason. Maybe some stress due to the hot temperature in the box during the veg (30ºC as peaks sometimes).Any idea?

Let soil dry out too much or is it because they are stretching too much due to temp differences between nightWe noticed the leaves a very light green colour and some were drooping slightly. We suspected overwatering so let them dry out for a night which seems to have corrected the colour however worried that we let them dry out too much? One plant was totally blew over by the fan. TIA
