Bad genes or normal?

Biffkingstarted grow question 4y ago

My white widow is growing really strange. It is getting proper light, but it is all stretched out. Is this normal for white widow auto or is it just bad genes?

It’s an autoflower - their genetics are a roll of the dice. It’s about that time where autos stretch significantly, so hopefully it’ll slow down soon.

nothing strange, just a phenotype with longer secondary stem and more spacing between nodes.

Stem growths or nodules? All info or theories welcome!One of my strains "The Incredible Bulk" always gets these stringy protrusions. My best guess is that it's like primordial roots due to the plant needing a transplant. Young clones don't have them just older plants of this strain. Any info or theories are welcomed.

Nodes Spacing and Autoflowers I'm wondering the following; I don't want tall lanky plants, but I also don't want to hurt my yeild by having the nodes too tight to where they can't grow right. So, the question is: Is it possible for nodes to be too tightly packed? I'd prefer the scientific reasons if possible.
