First Grow. Have A Question And Need Some Help

Discussion in 'First Time Marijuana Growers' started by tparevo15, Jun 3, 2014.

  1. It's my first attempt at growing... anything. Keep in mind that these 2 plants were grown from seeds I received from a friend. They are white widow plants. I used these two seeds as a trial grow, before I go and buy seeds/clones and start a legit grow, just to kind of get a feel for what I'm doing and to work some links out. I planted one in rockwool, and one in soil. The water used is RO water, pH to 5.6. They started off strong, sprouting in 2 days! By day 5, they were about 4" tall!! But this is where I'm having issues.

    Now the plants are falling over. The stems are long, and are too weak to hold the plants up. My temp range is 73-84, humidity is around 50%. I have a 6" fan set on low and a cfl light placed about 4" from plants.

    Why are they dropping?!?

    I apologize if this has already been discussed 100 times on here. But I thank you and appreciate any input to try and help me out

  2. They are stretching for the light. Bury all that extra stem up to the cotyledons and give them more light.
