It looks like it is stretching. I would give it more light or lower your light closer to the plant.

Stretching is usually an indication of inadequate light strength. Cheers,........ Organoman.

Light distance for Seedlings
My question is my 2 seeds have popped out and I am using 3- 8.5 watt 5000K LED lights to light them up. Both plants are under humidity domes so how far should I put the lights above them? I have them in a make shift grow tent for now as my regular tent is finishing up a grow.

6 weeks of veg? I got only 3
Why do i see some auto or non auto diaries with 6 week of veg? When i grew non auto i just had them 3 weeks then switch the light time and changed 400w to a 600w. I learned that because they used to get hella big. And in Auto seeds i switch the spectrum after 3 weeks

Switching from veg lights to flower lights (blue to red) ?
With autoflower when do I switch from veg (5000k-6500k)blue light spectrum to flower lights(3000k-4000k) w/ red infrared ? Should I switch lights right when pistils start showing or wait until after the flower stretch when buds are forming?

Can you make an Auto flower by changing the light schedule?
Ok, before everyone jumps on this with the obvious answer - I understand that you don’t NEED to change the lighting for an auto to flower, but my question is can you, if you wanted to, flip an auto to flower by changing the light schedule to 12/12?

Starter kits!
What can I expect from a 600w starter led, I know they're not meant to be great, but of 2 plants in 1.2 x 1.2 x 2m tent, fan kit, filter, etc. I know it won't great an there loads of other factors but say its a good grow, goes well what can you expect with these of good plant.
