Does it looked stretched?

Hey rollies, here are some pics of my bag seed. I've done some adjusting to my LED's to see if there's a "happy range". I'm purposefully omitting any light specs to avoid people who are partial or opinionated ;) lol. Anyway what do you guys think??? Does it look stretched or good growth rate? These pics are 25 days from braking ground! I know they're small but does it look stretched? Be gentle with me (first time grower).

I am not an experienced grower, but if you want my opinion, there: I dont know what style of growing you wanna do (regular, LST, or SCROG) but if you want bushier plant, I think it`s a good time to transplant into bigger pot (the one you will be using for the full growth) and start tying those babies down! If you wanna make sure you dont end up with tall skinny plant just put lots of airflow and LST the heck out of them! they look healthy to me I wouldnt worry about them being too stretch at this point

They do look stretched to me, well at least more than to my liking. You may want to consider topping and getting the leds closer to shorten the distance between nodes. And also as was previously suggested, transplant to a larger container. They do look very healthy though, great job so far!

Yeah, as a matter of fact I am going to transplant it next week. It was originally going to a friends house but there has been a change of plan. Underneath the white board are 2 5gal buckets ready to go.

It's bag weed so good plant for me to practice on. I have 2 brainstorm (broke ground less than two weeks ago) which are my focus or main plants. So next watering I'll transplant & start tying some branches down! I'll adjust the light right now! Thanks for the advise.

Yeah, they're a bit stretched out. I'd top 'em and get that LED closer. Nice effects the LEDs have on the pics!

I have a correction. It's only 25 days old. I've never topped before but I guess that's what this plant is for. I'll look up some links on topping. Any suggestions? I also dropped the panel to about 6" from the plant.

Definitely stretched.

*blink* That's 25 days old.... without being topped? *ahem* Wow.

I think you'd reaaaaally like hempy buckets.... much faster growth and drop dead simple hydro (just like soil really, just a different pH and bucket)


Stay Safe! :D

Ok Rollies, I found this last night. I inspected for pest (all clear). No discolorations. Doesn't feel wilted. Almost looks like if it's the natural pattern of the leaf. I've been skeptic about this plant for the past week or so. I think it was an old or bad seed. It grew with a mutated leaf & just doesn't seem to thrive. The rest of the plants are healthy, happy, & thriving!!! I'm using MG soil, MG Perlite, MG Nursery Select all purpose 20-20-20. I water whenever the soil tells me to. The water PH is: 6.6 - 6.4. What do you guys think?

Looks alright, use those MG products sparingly...

Keep the LED's low to promote tighter nodes, I'd drop it to 6 inches of so....

Here's an update. Oldest plant is Sour Diesel 37 days. Brain Storm is 23 days & the rest of the Sour Diesel (in cups) are 26 days. I'm going to kull the sickly looking one (bag seed) with the cups around it. That's actually the oldest of all the plants (38 days). I'm waiting for the SD in the cups to get bigger so the roots can hold the soil when I transplant them. Seems the BS slowed the growth process when I transplanted them. All the soil fell from the roots when I transplanted but they're looking good & shooting root! Pics 1,2&3 are shots of the oldest of the plants SD. pic 4&5 are body shots of the BS's. pic 6 is SD in cups & bag weed in bucket. Pic 7&8 are top shots of the BS's.
