It may be you light intensity is too low but she is still small, give her some more time and see how she goes

Have you got some kind of fan in your grow room ? add a small fan in your grow room also lower the light down abit that will stop her stretching :)

Tallo principal quebrado. ¿Cómo curarlo?
Good evening. I just broke the main stem of my plant. I was doing LST trying to lower the apex and I broke it. I put some mud on it and wrapped it in tape. I need help. What do you advise me to do? Will it recover?

Stem thickness
I am noticing that my stem is often too thin when compared to other plants. What this could be an indication of? Could it be that I am slightly under watering the soil by giving about 0.5 L of water each two days after 35 days of veg?

Accidentally bent/squished the stem on Pheno #3, is it possible it can bounce back?
I was LST'ing the Purple Haze Pheno #3, I accidentally got a bend in the stem and it could have snapped or partially torn, I attached some photos hope these help. It was by accident, I have nerve damage and arthritis so I can't keep my hands still that much especially standing.

What happened here?
Had 2 stems that aren't doing well. Can really tell what happened. They are a lot taller than the rest. At first I thought it was because of light intensity. When I examined it closer it looks like the stem is damage or some sort of nutrient thing. Any thoughts

First time grower, concerned about plants thinning.
This is my first grow, I will be switching these girls to t5 tomorrow. Should I be concerned by their height? They will also be going outside into a greenhouse after 2 weeks inside.

After 7 days of vacation and my first try of the Autopot system I noticed heaviest overwatering by the autopot. Took them immediately off the system. 3 of 4 plants felt and layed with weak stem on the ground/soil. When you watch the photos: go on (any tips?) or start from scratch

Why are my stems drooping?
My Jack Herer auto is dropping in the stems that are supposed to come out at a 45° angle and resting upon the fan leaves. The light is a Mars Hydro SP 250 that's about 24 inches above the canopy. I stopped watering today in an attempt to see if I was perhaps over watering.

Weak stems in one of my plants
My one plant is starting to have support issues with a couple stems, when I felt the stems they seem soft/rubbery. I’m just curious if this is the sign of some sort of deficiency. Any help is greatly appreciated. I have installed a ScrOG to help support the stems

Hi growmies, I need some help please. My babies are now at the beginning of their second week of life. I have realised that one plant has its stem bent, like if the main cola was too heavy to support. The others are fine, any suggestion on what is happening? 🙏🏽.. pls see pic.
