Are my plants healthy? What to do to help plants grow stronger

Newislandgrowerstarted grow question 2y ago

15 days old plants. Special queen. Temp now is 30 c and 62 humidity. The plants are leaning from the top and not sure why. I used soil to hold it up, but keeps lowering. They both sprouted on 25/8/23. Any help’ please?

Thank you for your response, I appreciate it. Because it my new grow I'm stuck between not knowing what's too much. I've been running the fan on low since sprouted and still weak. I am following a YouTuber chart howweedgrow and still not sure what's wrong. I turned the fan up one plant bend even more.

From the day of sprout I always have some air moving the ladies a little. Makes their stems stronger as they grow.

Noob grower - plant need extra support?I've got a plant 9 weeks into veg that sags noticeably when the leaves are wet. Is this unusual or will the branches thicken enough to be able to support rain soaked clusters of sticky-icky happiness? Is there anything I can do to encourage thicker branches?

Damping off? Or just damaged?Are they damping off? They were outdoor in the sun almost whole day. They got droopy and I thought it is because they haven't been in the sun each day and are not used to warmth. The stems are rather thin and I burried the highers part in soil from the edges to keep them right.
