Are my babies stretching alittle?

[TonyBalogna]

They are fine. when you transplant them make sure you burry them deep. Almost all the way to to the first leaf set and they will then thicken up quite nicely. They are good healthy sprouts!

um did i mention how long i grew for? do u already know?(wow must be a mindreader) do u think ur better then every1 else cus u say u have ten years under ur belt.. doesnt mean they where good or successful years, either way if uve been growing for ten years u havent been doing very well if ur plants are stretching...also i believe ive already givin u information that u didnt know.. and sorry for giving u an opinion of why they are stretching i had mine in grass b4 and they did shitty cus depending how tall this grass is it is probably blocking the sun or filtering it with shade.. u say 10 hours a day but did u sit there and watch that or are u just assuming.. dont assume cus ull make an ass out of u and me..u also dont seem like an experienced grower cus of ur location and from what i can see in ur pics lol u have them on a board on a swamp with nothing surrounding it( if u really grew that long ud have them holes dug with a min of 5 gal of soil in it by now.. ur more then likely gonna get caught by a chopper someone will steal it. itll flood and theyll die or animals are gonna eat them. anyways yes its offensive when idiots open there mouth when they think they know more but are asking dumb questions then tell the people who are answering it that they are wrong and u know more..funny i dont have anything posted in plant problems whats so ever. think about it buddy ur whole thread is called are my babies stretching a little ..tells me u dont know shit.. and i was one of the first people to answer and wow every1 pretty much answered the same..

Dude, fucking relax, I wasn't dissing you, I wasn't even saying that I've grown longer than you, all I was saying is that I know how much sunlight their getting and it's not the sunlight that's making them stretch

Edit: and Dude, stop being so rude, it makes you sound like an ass. No offense by that. I'm not trying to start a fight with you. I'm a chill guy, hell I'm even taking a shit while I'm writing this

i had some seedlings do that also.
problem was....i started them way too early. they stretched out hella. and started budding in the first month of summer.
i got some 1 foot tall plants with little ass nugs.
BULLSHIT

now i start my seedlings in the week before summer starts and they do just fine.

Frosty,

Mine stretched for a while this spring too. It was partially due to the poor weather we had this spring, but they also needed more sunlight.

When you transplant them, make sure you drop those stretched stems a little further into the soil. I honestly don't think that the stretching you have is an issue though. Just make sure they are getting enough direct sunlight. You said you are getting 10 hours of direct sunlight a day? If that is true, I really can't say why they stretched. I have actually heard that a little stretching isn't bad for the plants. A little extra space between the nodes isn't detrimental for your plants success.

Here are a few things that can fix/prevent stretching...

1. Increase sunlight.
2. Bury the extra stem if they have stretched.
3. Reduce the amount of nitrogen they are getting (I am assuming you haven't even added nutes yet).

Note: If you are going to try to burying the extra stem, do not water near the stem for a while. Excess moisture around the newly buried stem may cause stem rot. Water around your plant.

Yet you don't know what a stretched plant looks like? Seriously, its common sense. 10 years in the game and you haven't picked up any info. on this type of thing? Try a new hobby... you'll end up in jail.
