Attachment 2152311 My set up is kinda whack, I have a CFL in a lamp, and a foil chamber to be reflective....would put the outside which was the original plan but we have been haveing terrible weather in general. Also do they stress if I mive them too much, on a ice sunny day I would like to move them outside on a sunny day

Hey man, dont put em right in the full sun all at once, it would kill them. First day shade, next day doppled shade, next day full sun (or stretch that out longer, even, if you want. It wont hurt)

Do I really need to burry the plant couple cm lower, I'm sure it is neccesary if it has stretched really high, but the 5cm? What about the top layer of soil then, the roots won't grow upwards will they? I'm just curious.

don't worry,i byrryed my appr.10 sm.,no ill effects(thanks,goten,they were streching really bad,i was paniced

)now,7-8 weeks later they are 3-5 feet high(sativa dominant guerilla),allready started flowering(just a bit),and i was wondering how tall they will at the end,and i was useing UB"s tehn.to get 2 or 4 main colas(thanks UB),it works great,i can just imagine how tall they would be without cutting them at the 2 node,when they had 6 nodes.that proves that burring the stretchy stems is actually beneficial(more roots i gess)
