Tight nodes good or bad?
MTMT2021started grow question 3 years ago
I have a pink lemonade 2 weeks 5 days old. It has great color and growth. Just wondering why my nodes are so tight ? Is this a good thing? I have read mixed feelings both ways. Thank you for any feedback.

I like to keep my nodes pretty tight. You will get a lot of stretch when they hit flower so keeping them short now will help you have a more manageable plant when it hits flower. If you feel it's too tight then raise your light about 6 inches and see what it does for a few days then make more adjustments as needed.

If you light is more blue/purple it was cause tighter growth between the nodes and a more red light will cause more length between the nodes.
it gets confusing when light intensity also is the cause for more or less length between the nodes depending how close/far away it is.
If you using LED's raise em up a bit. 5-10"
Happy Growing!

Concern about VPD, stretch, twisting leaves ... or is it OK?This Gorilla Zkittles seems to be stretching awfully much. Also, of more concern, the small leaves are twisting, as if too hot/dry. 78F, light is about 14" up, RH% setpoint 56%, leaf temps seems to max out at 76.5F. Should I worry? Or what? Thanks! VPD is 1.2-1.6 depending.

Excessive streching, or is it normal?Excessive streching, or is it normal?
What should I do to get more control for automatic genettics to avoid streching.
My guess is that this time, with healthy plants, and 3 in the 60x60 tent, they compited for light.
I didn't have a fan and ventilation is poor, would it be that?

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.

Tips to improve space and airflow (Lil Amazonia)As a first grower, I made a lot of mistakes. Now I'm lacking of space inside the tent. Is there any tip or techniques i can use to improve the space and airflow inside the tent. I was thinking of defoliation but maybe it can create more problems as they are Autos.

Should the first tiny node be removed?Hi guys! So this is a fb auto day 22. I was not planning to stress train her in any way. Could you please advise is this first node should be removed or kept? It looks unusually small to me and I wanted to remove it but I've never removed anything so early. Thank you, growmies!

How tall will they grow to be?How tall will these outdoor untrained, soil based photoperiod plants grow to be (best rough guess)?
I believe they're a sativa-dominant Sour strain (either Ultra Sour or S.A.G.E and Sour bag-seed).
Currently over 1 meter tall from soil at 60 days old in 7 Gallon pot.

Assymetrical stem growthHey, does anyone know what is this a sign of? It's the second plant I grow that starts growing like this at some point. One node below is symmetrical, new node is unsymmetrical. Is it from the heat stress? Or from the stretching to reach the light? Stress or not?

Size of Auto at end of Week 3I know genetics is a big factor, but these are suppose to be Sativa dominant 70/30, and they seem to be so short, even the LST sprouts are only a couple inches. When do autos typically take-off and produce some distance between nodes or are these stunted?

Nodes Spacing and AutoflowersI'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.Week 2
