hello he behaves like this because he is looking for the light! but don't be alarmed put it under direct light (lamp or sun) and when you move it into the pot plant it a little deeper to cover that stretch! Good luck! ✌️✌️ Maryjane23

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?

How tall can grow Durban Posion in late flowering?
Hi, what do you think, how tall can this plant grow? It is 4th week of flowering, and she already stretched out two times in size after switching lights. The distance from light is 30cm. The light is 65W LED. Also, what do you think about bud fattening? More light needed?

Help! Green Bean Giant
I 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.

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?

While watering this week I noticed a fair amount of roots surfacing in all of my plants (pic in week 6 of veg). Is this is a result of healthy rooting or signs of an issue? Leave exposed or cover em up? Inclined to leave as is for oxygen.

How do I backfill my plant?
Is there a right or wrong way to bury the stem on my Auto? I had an issue with stretching and wanted to wait til she was a bit bigger before I tried. Can I still do it now and what's the best way to do it? Cheers

She's too tall! Advice???
One of my girls is much taller than the others. I missed a branch during LST, if that isn't obvious lol. Any advice on how to handle this? She's getting way too close to the light.
