All seeds have unique genetic codes and are like children, even though they have the same parents, all grow/develop differently. Only clones grow identically.

i wont complain in this stage of grow, everything is possible here. and an automatic plant tends to explode in a certian point of grow, so dont worry

Sometimes you get a grower, sometimes you get a runt. And every variation in between.

While watering this week I noticed a fair amount of roots surfacing in all of my plants (pic in week 6 of veg). Is this is a result of healthy rooting or signs of an issue? Leave exposed or cover em up? Inclined to leave as is for oxygen.

Topping during Flowering: good or bad?
Does topping “fast growing” colas during flowering (for light purposes) help or hinder flower dev and/or harvest? Or should I sacrifice tallest ones to possible bleaching? Canopy was level before flower, but a few colas took off, creating uneven SoG (6" diff)

Hight Problems
I’ve got 3 plants in my tent, but they’re all different heights. To compensate, I’ve hung my light at an angle, so one end is closer to the smaller plants. My question is: Does this help, or am I better off keeping the light level? Any tips for dealing with uneven plant heights?

First time grower, 5 plants (autos) just over 5 weeks from germination in greenhouse (50-60cm in height), wondering if they are growing too tall and if it is too late to either top or carry out some low stress training at this stage? Any other advice welcome. Thank you all

Too close to the “sun”(light).... any advice?
My plant grew close to 4x it’s original size during her stretch, 10-12” on day one of 12/12 to 46” tall. She’s on day 30 of flower and I set up a second ScrOG net. Other than blocking light to shorter plants, do you see any other potential problems this second net might cause?

Has anyone been through a seedling stuck in survival mode?
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
