Drop your light. Inch at a time. That's what I would do.

How close/intense is you light? Stretching is a sign of too little/too weak lighting

She's too tall! Advice???
One of my girls is much taller than the others. I missed a branch during LST, if that isn't obvious lol. Any advice on how to handle this? She's getting way too close to the light.

Shall I Start Over? XS2000 60%@26”
Should I start this one over? I find that it is too tall. I am going by my lights (XS2000) instructions but I find contradictions everywhere I turn when looking for proper distances, ppfd values, etc. Some run these lights closer to their plants at 100% the entire time. 😳

My plant is to tall!
Hello Growers! The size of my Fat Banana Automatic is getting out of hand. I didnt expect it to grow that big. It is in Week 6 now and its about 80cm tall + the size of the pot. Can i still take measures to keep the size down a little bit? Or is it to late? Thanks for your help.

Too much stretch?
I’m 4 days into week 5, which is week 2 of flowering. My RQS fat banana autos are 40-50cms in height. That’s too much right? That stretch could make for a poor yield. Should I be worried and, if so, how do I slow the stretch? Indoor, hps, 18/6, 26* high, 16* low, 50% RH.
