the one on the left is samsara el alqumista... and the other samsara spicy white devil..

you think they look ok for 17 days old from sprout the one on the left and 16 days from sprout the other?

i m planning to change to 12-12 in a week or so... should i wait more? my grow space is 42 cm wide, 42 cm depth. and 1.2 m height..

I stretch several clones on purpose, or call it.. neglect. Because it allows me to customize,train,lst the shyt outta them. Crop circles. <3
I am lazy to post a pic but on the last page of my thread I believe you can see an example of what I do with Stretched Plants.

move your light higher but stretching is a bad practice
My thread is in my sig below.

hello.

my babys are 17 days old. they look pretty. but the first is 9 cm tall and the second is 7 cm tall. i transplanted the first from the party cup it was two days ago. and yesterday the second. they grew with a 105 watt cfl 6500k. and today i turned on two 85w cfl 2700k. the three bulbs have 13750 lumens output and are about 3-5 inches away from the babys. are they too short? the pots i transplanted them are 3 gallons and maybe their final pot cause of limited space. strains are samsara alquimista for the taller and samsara spicy white devil for the shorter.. temps are about 25-29 celcius. 24 hour lights on

tell me what to you think.. especially for the height issue... thank you!

Maybe you need to add some mutes 1/4 strength
Sal this thread is from 2011. I think the 1/4 nute phase of the grow is done, but i would like to tell the poster that said the plants are root bound that he doesnt know what hes talking about.
