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

Plant too tall solution
I already know it's because it didn't had the light for around a week (I was away) and that I should repot it and burry it up to it's cotyledons. - I don't really want to do that, because it's 8L pot and the plant is really delicate. Is it okay what I did?

Too much stretch?
I’m 4 days into week 5, which is week 2 of flowering. My RQS fat banana autos are 40-50cms in height. That’s too much right? That stretch could make for a poor yield. Should I be worried and, if so, how do I slow the stretch? Indoor, hps, 18/6, 26* high, 16* low, 50% RH.

Sehen sie gesund aus oder spargeln sie zu sehr?
Hallo das ist mein erster Grow Versuch mit 3x Cookies Gelato Automatics, bis jetzt sind sie nur ziemlich in die Höhe gewachsen so das ich gestern nochmal Erde nachgegeben habe um sie etwas zu stabilisieren. Die Blätter kommen langsam aber ich Frage mich ob es soweit gut aussieht?

Late topping to take direct clone from topping after 8 or 9 nodes?
Late topping to get a decent clone (two nodes) with first topping? What do you guys think, is there a too late for topping? Normaly i top only the tip and take clones later from branches. My girl nr.4 is three weeks behind she could catch up, cutting the clone from branches?

Any way to save my clones, and have healthy clones from these? I took these about 7 weeks ago and life got ahead of me. The plants these are from are great
I took these clones 7 weeks ago and never got around to transplanting them. As you can see, they are rootbound, stretched, and stunted. My question now is, is there any way I can make these clones usable? If not, it's a lesson for next time, but I want to use these clones.
