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 🌱

Plants too tall in back row.The plant's in the back row are too tall.
We cut the tops of the trellis boxes off about 18 inches.
Even with LST I still think they're too tall.
With the plants in pre-flowering (10 days)
should we cut the top of the plants off or is this a bad choice?
What do you recommend?Week 14

Has the early stretch ruined my plant at the first hurdle?Not really seeing growth in the way I have in past grows, should I cull one because of the stretch so early on and start again, or will it level out in a week or two?? Pretty sure I just had the light too high this is also my first time growing in Coco, more nutes?

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

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

Too Tall Too Quickly - How to slow this down?Following grower's advice, I chose not to top my autos.
When buying the seeds initially, I tried to buy only strains that were said to grow up to medium height.
Towards the end of week 5 and my Blackberry Gum is 90cm high.
How can I slow this down without affecting yield?
TIA

that they will get out of control with stretching (Landrace strain).
What can i do now to keep them down. Can I top them now in flowering stage?
