Are there any fans on it? A breeze will strengthen the stem up.

Fairly typical of o plant with a two thirds dominance of Sativa genes and not something to be worried about.

I think she’s perfect for her age! Give her a bit of time to fill out, as long as she can hold herself up I see no issues. 🌱

It’s that pheno! Happens! More sativa leaving pheno. Do you and your siblings look alike? Not exactly —- same with plants

My seedling just fell over
All of the sudden a healthy looking seedling decided to fall/bend over, it does have the thinnest stem of them all. Why is this happening and how can I prevent it with my other seedlings? Outside temperature is 24⁰ and I water them twice a day with pH-balanced water

Any ideas what happened here
Hey any idea what happened here? I thought it was too much light but the stem is brown like it's dieing. It's the only spot on the plant and the only stalks that are taller than the rest.

Will this tape repair a broken stem?
Should I re-wrap this broken stem? Bent with too much pressure and there was a snap, though not completely severed. I applied two or three layers of duct tape, not sure if the constant pull of ties will allow it to heal and repair. When should I take the tape off?

Stems on fan leaves weak
The stems on those big leaves seem kind of weak and in general as the grow out they seem to be drooping a bit like they can’t support the weight well. Does this look like a problem and if so any thoughts? I do have a couple of fans in the tent providing some circulation.

Is my light too far away from my seedling? What should I do to correct the bend and brown spots coming in on the plant? How often should I be watering my seedling and how much? You can see these deficiencies in my uploaded photos in my profile.

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!
