If the plants just create more and more nodes but doesnt reach very high at all, is this a bad thing? I'm considering raising the light to let them stretch, because where this is heading, it seems the light won't shine through to all parts of the plant. And all seven of them look the same.

Looks like mine, short and thick.

I dont know if that will yeild a decent ammount. But you could add CFL's to the side to promote more side growth.

How old are your plants? Got any pictures? -- nevermind, I just read your grow journal, and yes they look alike. Lets see what happens.

I don't think I'm willing to spend more cash on my setup to be honest, but I'll think about it. I actually wonder what I did wrong to get to this. As long as you don't 'burn' the plants, I didn't think you could have a 400w MH -too- close. Hmm.

thats a sign their diggin whatever your doin, and if they are doing that quickly you've found a nice strain keep it alive.

So you think I should keep the lights where they are and not raise them?

i like my lights as close as they can without heat stress or burns, soon i'll be getting a air-cooled hood for my 1000 mh so i can put it right over the tops. i want to air cool my whole set up eventually

Believe me, you want to keep your plants short and bushy on an indoor grow for as long as possible. Because when you change them over to flowering cycle, they are going to grow and stretch fast.

DO NOT RAISE THAT LIGHT!
