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

Autos queries
Hi guys, have a question for all of you, I have so many tiny branches (one of the pic shows you exactly what I mean), shall I leave them or cut them all? I can cut them at this stage of flowering? Also, I bought Bloombastic by Atami, shall I give it now? Or when (in Autos)? Thx

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.

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 slow this grow? At day 25 she is way too tall and will outgrow closet soon
This is growing WAY too fast! It's on a 12/12 due to the fake auto next to it. Day 25 and it's 22" already. It's been growing at 1" a day since day 13ish. It looked normal until then. Is this from the autoflower living soil at the bottom 1/3 of the bag? How do I slow? Help!

1 out of 5 juicy fruit is still preflower and are 56 days. The one that is not flowering is almost 4 feet tall and is the biggest of them all. I can’t imagine that a plant with such fast growth is a photo. If it is I’ll be happy. Is it definitely a photo? Also it’s light sensitiv

Wtf happened?
Wondering if anyone can help me understand why one plant grew out so stretched and with unformed buds while the other from same seed packet appears normal. Is this just a weird pheno? The strain (NLTxGelato) is a new one so I'm not sure how stable the genetics are.

Plant too big for growbox
Long story short, I overshot my container size, and now I have plant that is outgrowing my box. I cannot move it, so the only options are to manage the growth or kill it. Any tips that would help me keep the size down and bring this plant to successful harvest would be great.

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
