New ones are too tall and thin.
AlpineGoatstarted grow question 4 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 mate🍀🙏👍

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.

Because they are searching for the light , stretching and have not the time to get stronger

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 :-)

Don’t know why some seedlings stretch but no problem transplant to finish pot and bury almost up to the fist leaves. Don’t 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

Plant stakes for heavy branches???Do you add structural support to branches before they form buds? People have warned me to add structure to my plant ASAP. I don't see a lot of photos of plants with stakes. My plant is really tall & I didn't train it because I was scared to break it & horizontal space limited.3 years ago

How tall can grow Durban Posion in late flowering?Hi, what do you think, how tall can this plant grow? It is 4th week of flowering, and she already stretched out two times in size after switching lights. The distance from light is 30cm. The light is 65W LED. Also, what do you think about bud fattening? More light needed?

Suggestions? To tall?First time trying SOG.
Multiple plants turned male so not as much of a "sea" as I wanted. The ones that are left are extremely tall. It feels like they are to tall.
Should I have kept the lights lower to stop them from stretching as much?
Any other suggestions for SOG growth?

stretchy seedlingHi i’m growing next to a window with approximately
10 hours of light + 4 hours of light from a 4W led bulb.
The plant is kind of stretchy, not falling over but I added a stick for safety just in case. Is it healthy? Will it be normal and recover?
I’m worried a lot. What to do?

Too much stretch?I’m 4 days into week 5, which is week 2 of flowering. My RQS fat banana autos are 40-50cms in height. That’s too much right? That stretch could make for a poor yield. Should I be worried and, if so, how do I slow the stretch? Indoor, hps, 18/6, 26* high, 16* low, 50% RH.
