New ones are too tall and thin.
AlpineGoatstarted grow question 5 years ago
Any ideas why the new one (Sapphire Scout and Mysterious Strain) are so tall and thin? What should I do to prevent them collapsing again?

Hi @AlpineGoat the light must be very high and it stretches too fast in proportion as the stalk gains strength. lower your light further, make a small pile with substrate around the stalk until the plant can stand upright, point a fan at them to blow the wind gently so as not to damage them but so that they shake, the more the stalk shakes the more it gains volume and strength. good luck mateššš

It may be over watering. The plant is growing largely because it has the right ingredients for photosynthesis. In my opinion you're either watering too often or too much. Try cutting the amount of frequency back for a couple of weeks.

Hi my friends :-)
This can have a couple of reasons.
Maybe the light is too far away? Was the earth too wet for too long?
If possible, put a small fan in front of it, this will grow a thicker trunk.
I hope I could help you a little :-)

Donāt know why some seedlings stretch but no problem transplant to finish pot and bury almost up to the fist leaves. Donāt overwater as not to rot before strength sprout roots. Hope this helps alittle.

Instead of pouring water, spray it, so you don't displace the tender roots

Harvest in 2 times, seeking advice, top big branch/buds first and then lowerNow 7 days from harvest. 3 plants with cloudy tricomes, no spottted ambar it's fine.
Is necessary to harvest in 2 times? Give a week more for the bottom "popcorn" buds and the third plant, shorter in shadow?
Should I cut whole largest branches entirely, or cut all at same height

Hight ProblemsIāve got 3 plants in my tent, but theyāre all different heights. To compensate, Iāve 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?

What could cause a Gelato to grow only popcorn buds?This is, luckily, not my plant but the sister of my Gelato Auto which for a long time did not want to grow. The pictured one did, but ver strangely: Thin, weak, extremely long branches carrying a multitude of popcorn buds. Grower is experienced. Any ideas about the cause?

Buon giorno weed doctors, did anyone have similar uniform chlorosis at the top or maybe knows what's up? What could be the reason and the solution? ThIs this some sort of immobile nutrient deficiency or excess? Could this be caused by heat and light stress? She is 80cm tall and almost touches the lights in the tent. I'm usually suffering from Calmag and Nitrogen issues and haven't yet experienced yellowing from the top. Thanks
