Bad genes or normal?
Biffking
started 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.

Jetzt schon 1-2 Blattpaare entfernen? (Pflanze hinten links)
Die Gorilla Zkittlez Auto hinten links wächst sehr dicht und tief, kann ich jetzt schon 1-2 Blattpaare entfernen um den Seitentrieben mehr Licht zu geben oder sollte ich noch warten bis die Pflanzen größer sind? Bisher keine Trainingsmethoden angewandt.

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

Should auto-flower plants be topped?
The 3 plants have been outside for a week. They are growing but are spindly, as in, big distance between leaf junctions. I wonder if I should have topped the plants, but I have read one should not top auto-flowers.

Proper node spacing
Can someone tell me the correct node spacing should be. I think they are stretching a bit and I should lower my lights, but don't want to risk light burn again. Conflicting info between light chart and ppd conversion with waveform lighting calculator.

Why is my girl so bushy and how to make her stretch? Thanks!
Hi guys, so she's 29 days old. I feel like light and air can't get in, she's covering her new growth with her big fat fan leaves. I don't think it has to do with distance to the light because I tried being 40cm above and now 75cm, she just keeps growing wider, DLI 25 ~ 15k LUX 😽

When should I start pruning leaves? What techniques would be recommended for a first time grower like myself? My Critical Purple plant has a lot of space between nodes. Is that normal?
