My plants are stretching nasty

The one inside, obviously, is stretching towards the light.

I have some outside, too, that bend within mm of the ground. Is it normal for them to stretch that much? How would I fix it? OR do I need to worry about it?


Love,
Iloveyou

Stretching can only be stopped by either adding more lights or putting the light closer to the plant.
Any Pics?

Well the plants are outside, so the light is all natural, ya know?



Sorry about the low-res. picture (photobooth on my mac), but the plant is probably 3/4" tall, but last night it took a this random stretch and is now looking like

That's a better interpretation of what it looks like.

The outside one looks like it is searching for the sun.Clear whatever you safely can of any vegetation over and around it.I would add some soil around the bottom of it, too. The inside one, as stated before, get as close as you can to the light without cooking it, and get a fan blowing GENTLY on it, just so it is like rustling in the breeze.
Good luck.

I wish I could clear all the vegetation around. There are a lot of weeds in the back, which I am slowly WEEDING out (LOL), but it's just such a huge project! I went ahead and added more soil around the base, though! Thanks for the advice. I hope they can bud :]

Dig up some regular soil and cover that store bought soil, if that's not your backyard, it will stick out like a sore thumb. The perlite, there is no perlite in the bush

Good Luck with the plants.

No it's my backyard for sure. No one dares enter the jungle that is my backyard except me.
