Reply With QuoteKeep them under direct sun rather than in the shade as that will cause them to stretch.
Its still possible for them to stretch if it is cloudy and if that happens just bury the stems which will help root growth aswell.
Seedling planted outside, how do i avoid stretching?
I revently took two of my babies outside and i was wondering what some good ways to keep the stems from stretching are, looking forward to reading your responses
Legalizing herb throughout the United States could bring the Government 1.5 TRILLION dollars a year. That's about 1/3rd of the nations debt. LEGALIZE!

A seedling?Originally Posted by alonefarmer420
really?
I don't get RIU tonight.
You just want to make sure its in a sunny spot especially its first week. My seedlings this year stretched alot for like 2 weeks but now the nodes are getting way tighter..
Seedlings are programed to stretch to beat surrounding vegetation. They should stop somewhere between the first and third set of true leaves. Full sun and wind help big time. You can do little seedling pushups from side to side too, just don't break it. If your starting them indoors then put the light on the side and rotate the plant 180 after it grows to the light so it has to bend back the other way. You could also just plant it deeper which will also cause larger root mass.
thanks for the responses
