Hi Royaljack Every plant needs stretch but why and how much? A plant stretching on pre-flowering is not due to low light conditions. A plant stretching due to low light conditions is not the same as streching for preflowering. While a plant might stretch in low light to 1,2m it might only have 6 buds along the branch but if a plant stretches in pre-flowering with full light conditions it will develop more in general. even it's the same 1.2m or even 20cm shorter. Makes sense no? More light, more energy, more plant?

Indeed, lift your lights to make them stretch.

If you need stretch then lift the light or turn its power down. They will still stretch under intense light though.
