Do you guys know any tricks to get my plant to grow taller? Goal is to increase space in between nodes.
I've tried raising the LEDs to 30 inches for a few days. Also tried leaving it in complete darkness for 24 hours.

Hi @NASATrainer! What makes plants stretch: 1/ dark cycles, you can increase your night duration up to 14 hours with 10 hours of light, 2/ nitrogen, you could add some more Nitrogen during the stretch phase, but be careful not to over-do, a plant stunted with Nitrogen during flowering will result in weird buds or 'the claw'. 3/ plant-to-lamp distance, increasing this value should result in vertical growth, as the plant will look for more light. Hope this will help, keep us updated and happy growing! 👊

Keep doing what your're doing looks good. One thing you can do thou is to secure good amount of Nitrogen when flowering period starts it will help that stretch even more..

If you want it to keep stretching just keep on going how you are. Keep the light distance high. I've noticed some plants respond to defoliation/lollipopping by shooting and stretching. I wouldn't mess with her too much just to get her to stretch, because light intensity also effects stem strength and you want think stems to hold up those big buds.💪 Good luck and happy growing!! 💪

Dude stop torturing your plant lol, the plant will grow taller, this is a GORILLA , they dont call it that because it's small you know? it will triple in size during it's longer-than-usual flower stretch period , it's branches will grow, then multiply, then multiply again. You want to maintain an appropriate lamp to plant distance no matter what : it's the difference between yield and stress ! Just flip it and see, hope this helps 🚀

F44: dozens of gnats stucked on buds & sugar leavesHey,
I noticed dozens of gnats stucked on sugar leaves and buds trichomes/resin... I tried to pick them by hand but there are too many.
I saw articles about bud washing which seems to be a good thing except for higher mold risk.
Would it be the only way to smoke bug free weed?

First Grow 4 weeks into Veg - Let my humidity get too high for 1 night. Need help with mold/septoria/?Last 3 days I've pruned diseased leaves every morning, foliar sprayed peroxide leaves & topsoil, & added some to watering solution. Is only affecting one plant in tent. Humidity no longer issue (was waiting 4 inline fan). If I keep pulling off leaves it's going to die anyway.

translucent pest in soilHi, last watering I've seen tiny translucent insects (about 1 mm) emerging from the soil. They are fast and can jump like a flea. I assume they live in soil. What are these little monsters, should I worry about them and what should I do ? TIA

Pest infestation left my plant folded and weak. I treated it, but now blacked out leaves?Ants were farming an oval shaped bug's secretions that was eating my stem and going underground, leaving a trail of a film-like substance.
Treated it with neem oil, cigarette butt tea, garlic and dishwasher soap to fend them off. Black leaves now. Tips?

BugsJust noticed a small grey Rollie pollie looking big on one of my seedlings. Only found one and believe I killed it but what should I do to prevent/get rid of these bugs. I have another seedling that I didn’t see bugs on and a flowering plant that hasn’t had any issues with bugs

handelt es sich bei den Tieren um schwarze blattläuse? (Habe leider keine besseren Bilder hinbekommen)
Ich habe auch einige größere schwarze Tiere mit Flügeln an ähnlichen Stellen gefunden.
Denkt ihr mit Wasser und anschließend mit einer Seifenspirituslösung abspritzen reicht?

What are these bugs and what to do about them?Hi,
I spotted these on one of my balcony plants today. Somekind of mites?
They were around the sugar to middle sized leaves on new growth. It's around early to mid flower.
I removed the leaves that had the most on them and tried to get rid of those who were left. What else to do?
