Has anyone been through a seedling stuck in survival mode?
brouse55started grow question 2 years ago
I'm wondering how tall a seedling can get before you call it a fail? I was excited at 2 to 3 inches but she's about to break 5 inches and the first true leaves still don't want to sprout. I fed her bone meal two days ago and moved the lite. ec is looking like everything dissolved

Brace the seedling against a bamboo skewer or equivalent and use soft twine to prevent it from moving aorund to much.
Get a light breeze in the tent pointed at the wall not the plant and it will help thicken up the stem to the point it will no longer need support.
The plant is stretching because it wants more light. can also try moving it a bit closer.
Good Luck!

It's crazy how close a seedling wants that light but I managed to pull through

Are we growing on track?Thoughts on my grow at the end of week 2? Am I on track? They seemed to be a bit stretchy don't you think? With my cool tube installed planning on dropping them 30cm/1foot away from my plants. The leaves feel some what rough any suggestions. Please like, comment and follow 🙌

Oh no! I didn't give them the proper light power and they stretched too much!The girls are already in their final containers and they are only 1 week old. Any tips what should I do to fix this issue and avoid stressing them out while I do it?
Perhaps I should just use a guide? Add more soil? (it's already near to the top tho) or should just ignore it?

Uneven Canopy ManagementI've been trying to even out the canopy, Strawberry Cough (smaller/bushier) is a completely different pheno to Blueberry (tall/stretchy). How should I manage it? I've tried heavy defol/topping for Blueberry and prefer to stay away from LST - I want both to have a similar diameter

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

I feel like this one is getting out of control I think bad gene from problem early and slow flowering?
Any suggestions of what I can do?
I want to wait and see how it turns out even if whispy bud but not if it's going to be at a detriment to the others they are smelling lovely
