I’d lower the light till you can get a better one, and you need to bury some of that stem with more soil so less is above ground. Good luck 🌱

HLG 600R distance during sproutingHow close should my 600R HLG LED be to my solo cup seedlings? I have 4 in cups each about 3-4 inches tall and I’m worried the light isn’t close enough. It’s running at 20% and 36in from the tallest sprout. Am I good? Thanks in advance!!!Plant. Too tall

Las plántulas se estiran buscando luzTengo una lampara QB LED de 50W a 30 cm de altura, pero las plantulas de los laterales del cultivo se estiran buscando la luz
¿Acerco más la lampara? ¿Las botellas de agua están disminuyendo el PPFD?
Fabricante indica a 55 cm para esta fase

Help! Green Bean GiantI have one plant in my first set dwarfing all hell out of my other four in the set, and the remaining plants in my tent. I'm trying to get opinions on what to do with her. She's about 35in comparable to the next tallest around 18-20. Still waiting in my bigger tent to move all.Week 2

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

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
