Are these too tall?
jgdiaz81started grow question 6y ago
Hey all! Was wondering if these are too tall and if so, what can I do. Sprouted 4/15. Followed light company’s recommendations on distance and brightness to a T. Using 2 Viparspectra 1000W LEDs in a 4x4x7 tent.

Yes looks like you could definitely lower your light I would lower it like 6 inches and back away as you see fit but I think 4-6 inches Lower will really help strengthen them up! Good luck 🍀👍

they're searching for light, i think you should lower the light i'd always put it 60 cm away from the 240 real wattage from wall led. Hope it help you, happy growing

Yes they have stretched a bit to get closer to the light so you could get the light closer to them t stop them from stretching.

Getting a little leggy yes
Need more white/blue spectrum light, the lack of it is the main trigger for stretch.
Plant "thinks" its not in the sun and so grows taller to do so. Plants are VERY competitive.
Either lower the lights a tad to increase it or add some to it.

WachstumHi dear growers, I have a little problem. So I have a Lemon Wonder Auto that germinated on February 24th, then grew normally for 6 weeks, took a break, and started growing again three weeks ago, and now it's going into flowering. My lady is now almost 16 weeks old.

Stretch to the lightHow can you tell if your light is to close or to far? Is this gal stretching to much? Should I have increased the dimmer and/or lowered the light earlier?

Let soil dry out too much or is it because they are stretching too much due to temp differences between nightWe noticed the leaves a very light green colour and some were drooping slightly. We suspected overwatering so let them dry out for a night which seems to have corrected the colour however worried that we let them dry out too much? One plant was totally blew over by the fan. TIA

Do you have a solution to stop the growth of stems?Apparently this would be due to a lack of light and stress because of the too high temperature.
I exposed them in a brighter place and I controlled the temperature to a maximum of 25/26°C.
It doesn't seem to stop...
How can I repair the damage? Is it too late?
Thanks in advance.

How to manage a tall plant with a thick stem in week 1 of flowering?One plant I ordered online was pre-grown. Now, it’s about 20 cm taller than my other plants. At the top, the taller plant gets more than 1000 PPFD, while the lower canopy gets about 500 PPFD. It’s currently week 1 of flowering. The stem is too thick to bend down.What would youdo?
