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 🌱

Are these stretching? What should I do for the 2x top that barely sprouted?
Viparspectra xs2000. Just moved it to a 25" distance and 50% light intensity hoping it'll help, but unsure if it'll burn them? What should I do? Top 2x seeds JUST sprouted and are just barely above the soil. How to accommodate all plants regarding light intensity and distance?

Recover from tall seedlings
So I realized that my seedlings are pretty tall because of light deprivation. How much does this hinder? Do I follow the manufactures recommendation (30% @ 1ft) or increase it slightly (40%?) to compensate?

stretchy seedling
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?

Will this branch hold? Newbie
Currently 10 days in too flower. I’m worried that this branch will snap at one point. Did I over do LST? I laid it flat to counter balance it from the main stem.

At what point do autoflowers stop growing? mine is at 1.4m now, week 8. Sativa, Super Lemon Haze Auto. I was assuming by the time its already flowering it would stop growing taller, but this plant just keeps going!!
