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 🌱

Buon giorno weed doctors, did anyone have similar uniform chlorosis at the top or maybe knows what's up? What could be the reason and the solution? ThIs this some sort of immobile nutrient deficiency or excess? Could this be caused by heat and light stress? She is 80cm tall and almost touches the lights in the tent. I'm usually suffering from Calmag and Nitrogen issues and haven't yet experienced yellowing from the top. Thanks

Long and Spindly girlBubbles is stretching quite far. Long and spindly. This isn't good as she can't hold her head up anymore. I've lowered the grow light and also have the light going 19 on and 5 off for the grow day. What can I do to help her out at this point?Plant. Too tall

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?

Hight ProblemsI’ve got 3 plants in my tent, but they’re all different heights. To compensate, I’ve hung my light at an angle, so one end is closer to the smaller plants.
My question is: Does this help, or am I better off keeping the light level? Any tips for dealing with uneven plant heights?

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

Flower Stretch and MainliningFlower Stretch Question When I flip to flower, she will stretch and about double in size. Does this include all the bare growth I have cleared off during toppings? ie, if the stalk at the bottom is 12" from the bottom to the start of the last topping, does that 12" count in?4y ago

Beginners mistake: how best to navigate light stress issues for tall plant in a too small tent?We have two autos in 5 gallon pots in a small 24"x24"x48" tent. One of our plants is inches away from the LED grow light and it's experiencing light stress for sure. What can we do to get these plants to harvest as best as possible? We are LSTing now.
