MistaOCanswered grow question 12h ago The main issue here is definitely that the plant isn’t getting enough light. That’s why it’s stretching so much—it’s trying to reach a better light source. What I’d recommend is either supporting the plant with wooden stakes, like you’ve already started doing, or repotting it and placing it a bit deeper into the soil so the stem doesn’t end up too long.
But most importantly, you need to increase the amount of light it’s getting to prevent it from becoming so leggy. Either move the lamp closer, increase its brightness, or—if the plant is outdoors—try to give it more natural light. Just be careful not to put it in direct sunlight yet, since it’s still too young for that.
