What happened to the other two? You wanna just get rid of them?

Today's set:




The one before last is seriously badass. Still gotta work on the stretching though.
What do you guys think? Anything I should do?

Budman, you've got me seriously jealous. Keep that shit coming.

From this morning:


The second one is bigger but still has a stretching issue, how can I rectify this?

move the light closer, bury more of the plant ... from what i see more dirt should be fine. are those one gallon pots???

Budman... you need to do some reading, friend It's okay, everyone is new at some point and I am still really wet behind the ears myself, maybe you can learn from the CFL forum, check out my own CFL journal here: My Hempy Top 44 CFL Grow Journal

Your plants are really badly stretched, I don't know if there is any coming back from that... that one plant turned a loop or something! Amazing, it's like hes gone out looking for where you stashed the light!

CFL's should be 1-3 inches from the top of the plant or it will just stretch endlessly. It also looks like you have red light and for veg growth before flowering you need blue (daylight); elsewise the red light will also promote stretching.

Best of luck to you sir, you're lucky you found RIU; there are some really knowledgeable people around here to help newbies like you and I.

Yeah, investing in some proper blue CFLs wouldn't be a bad idea.

What should I do about the first one?
