Generally a plant can double to triple in height during the stretch. Training it while it's stretching helps to stop it growing into the light. There are various methods for training.

Droopy, purple discolloration, plastic like top leaves.
Hey guys! Got problem with few girls. One is very droopy, 2 other have purple discolloration and big fan leaves and 1 is way taller then it should be. Also top leaves look like plastic and abit curled down. pH pen fault? Over wattering? Too cold?

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.

Stretched?
First time grower here. My plan was to keep these on my windowsill for 2 weeks before I move them outside for my outdoor grow. With them starting to look leggy, should I stick to the plan, or move them out early?Weather is currently cool 14c with intermittent sun.

Too hot?
Worried that these are not growing too fast. Do they look OK? Does it look like these plants are getting too much heat outside? Temps have been in the 90's but they don't seem to be reacting poorly

Effect of cold temps during seedling stage?
Anyone have any idea how cold temps would affect my growth this early? I tossed my 3 day old seedlings into their pots (started in a Jiffy pellet), and the temp went from 70 to 60 and stayed that way ever since... Thanks!

She's getting too tall!
2x2x4 tent, flipped to 12/12 A week ago, and removed my LST plant ties at the same time to make watering easier. She's getting tall though, and now I'm thinking of putting the ties back on. Will that even help? Should I try something else? the pics are about 1 week apart

1 week in veg no new leaves yet?
Is there anything else I can do to make the true leaves come out or do I just have to be patient? It is literally at the window silk at the moment. No lamps used. It only has the 2 true leaves from when it popped out of the ground last week.

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.
