Do you have a fan? That will/should strengthen the stem. Your light might be inadequate or may need to move closer.

Plants too tall
The ladies are exaggerating and the veg season is going to last at least 1 more month or more. I keep doing HST but it's not enough. Even on multiple branches. Even stopped feeding. Any suggestions? Can't LST due to strong wind during storms.

How do I stop stretching?
I have a 1000W dimable grow light and a 36" tall tent. How bright and how tall should I set the light to stop the stretching? I added the support and more soil today to stabilize.

Any advice for a newbie?
Hi all, Just finished week 4 and I feel they are a little behind for a plant know for it’s quick turn around. Would this matter that I have had the light high until week 3? Not sure if I have ruined there chances? Confidence is a little low at the moment. TIA

Micro growing?
How to keep things short? Very limited height. Tried "Short" photoperiod strains, small containers, short veg time, close as possible to availible lights. Going to try everything stated but also topping several times without recovery time?! Any suggestions?

Super crop or not ?
Hi everyone, she has been flipped to 12/12 exactly 3 weeks ago. I’m thinking about super cropping but I’m not sure if this is ok at this stage of flowering. Is it worth trying ? The middle of my plant is taller

Will this be ok?
My plant is 3 days old and is already 100mm (4 inch) tall. I started this with a plant already in my tent so its a fair distance from the light. Should i keep it going or just start over when the other plant is finished?

Twisting, yellowish, drooping leaves
Soil: Nectar of the Gods (4shot) Nutes: Nectar of the gods (exact on my page) I'm almost positive I've been overwatering but what do I do now lol? How do I get my plants to perk up? Do I wait it out? I've also brought my light down 2 and a half feet due to stretching.

Growing to fast?
Is there such a thing as the plant growing too fast? It has quadrupled its height in as many days causing it to sort of flop to the side. The leaves are getting bigger but nowhere near the rate that it's growing taller. Is this normal for strawberry cough? #newtothis

Harvest in 2 times, seeking advice, top big branch/buds first and then lower
Now 7 days from harvest. 3 plants with cloudy tricomes, no spottted ambar it's fine. Is necessary to harvest in 2 times? Give a week more for the bottom "popcorn" buds and the third plant, shorter in shadow? Should I cut whole largest branches entirely, or cut all at same height

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.
