Too many par measurements from the light spectrum will cause the customer to create shorter nodes and stretch less. In addition, genetics is also an important part. My tip: defoliate and place the lamp higher or dim it a bit.

Looks like you're growing a shorter strain, and you're still in the veg phase. Your plant won't stretch as vigorously until you flip it to flower.

Are they on time?
Hi there! What do you think about my plants? It's my first grow and I have no idea if they are doing good or are too slow to be at the end of the fourth week. Does it mean starting from tomorrow they are already in flowering time? Thanks! Cheers

Stunted growth?
Do my plants look small for the end of week 2? Have messed around with the lights far too much, switching from MH to HPS then finally to LED because of heat problems.

Extremely slow vegetative autoflower grow. I'm growing Glue Auto from FastBuds and Dark Devil from Sweet Seeds. What is wrong with my environment?
I'm currently watering about every 3-4 days, one time just water the other nutes from CANNA at 1/4 strength, temps between 20-27 and humidity about 60%. Glue Auto is about 30 days, Dark Devil is about 1 week. Oscillating fan is always on, extraction fan only turns on when >60%

Very Small Small Growth
I'm having a bit concern about my plants here, they're 3 weeks old but growing very small (probably only 2-3cm tall), the weird thing is, they look very happy, and I don't see the plant having any problem at all beside that they are growing so small for a 3 Weeker.

Are my plants short? Please I need help and advice. Thank you!
Hello everybody, this is my first grow so that's why i have so many doubts. One guy told me that my plants are short for being 6 weeks old. They are 6 weeks old since they started to germinate. Do you think they should be bigger? What do you think I did wrong? Thank you!

Tallo muy frágil
Is it normal for the stem to be so fragile? I have to support it by packing the soil well; the plant already suffered a small narrowing from which it has survived. Could that have something to do with it? Any advice?
