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

Stretching Seelings Gorilla Glue
Some of my seedlings are stretching far out of the soil already is this normal for the Gorilla Glue strain? I am growing White widow x Big Bud under same conditions: Lights are at 40% and 22inches from the seedlings. Humidity is being kept to around 75% at all times.

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?

Do you have a solution to stop the growth of stems?
Apparently this would be due to a lack of light and stress because of the too high temperature. I exposed them in a brighter place and I controlled the temperature to a maximum of 25/26°C. It doesn't seem to stop... How can I repair the damage? Is it too late? Thanks in advance.

Different sizes of plants : light power and distance to the plant choices
My babies have different sizes from 25 to 16 cm. What is better ? : a strong light (Dimmed 60% of a 205 led) far away from the plants (46cm for the closer ones and 57cm for the smallest plants) or or a more moderate light (dimmed at 40%) but closer (from 35cm to 46cm) Thx so much

Is it growing to fast?
Is she looking normal? I've never seen anything grow as fast. She's grown 2 inches in 3 days. Only using natural light to grow because it'll be moving outside when it's a bit bigger.

Any ideas why 2/4 have grown much taller and the other 2/4 are shorter and bushier?
Does anybody know why 2/4 plants seem to be way taller than the other two? All four are meant to be the same strain, have all had the same conditions since day 1. Today i moved the taller plants to the left side of the tent and raised the shorter plants.

stretched 12 day- insufficient light
are plants very backward for 12d?Do you think that if plants are not going to grow enough and their start flowering quickly when their are still small,it is not better to throw these away and plant new seeds?Does it cause the yield to decrease?Or still have a chance to fix it?

Feedback on my miainline?
This is my first mainline so I am looking for any feedback/suggestions on how it looks so far and what type of yield to potentially expect? 1 week into flower. Does it look too tall or stretched?

Seedling stretching
Is it normal for a seedling to stretch closer to the light than the other 3 seeds and have stunted growth? All 4 have equal light and run on a RDWC getting equal nutes.

Harvest in 2 times, seeking advice, top big branch/buds first and then lower
Now 7 days from harvest. 3 plants with cloudy tricomes, no spottted ambar it's fine. Is necessary to harvest in 2 times? Give a week more for the bottom "popcorn" buds and the third plant, shorter in shadow? Should I cut whole largest branches entirely, or cut all at same height
