  2. It's not about leaf count....its about root mass.
     
  3. pic? 7inches 4 leaves at 5days from sprouting sound like its streched a bit
    or do you mean 4nodes
    also what pot do you have them in

  7. Man your plant is SO stretched. Whatever your using for lights (I'm guessing cfls) you need to get them a LOT closer to your plant. if I'm right and your using cfls, keep em about 2-3 in from the top of your girl

    And as for transplanting, your better off just planting your seed directly into its final growing space so as not to get any transplanting related stress. Since she's so stretched out I'd wait a week or two to transplant since her stem is really thin and brittle and it'll be easier to damage her
     
  8. im using florecent 400 watts

  9. Why would u let her get so stretched.? U probably thought wow she's growing so nice and big.

    give the stem some support and keep the light 3" from the top
    you need the root mass to grow and fill the pot, and the stem needs to get a lot thicker before even thinking about re poting the plant.
    if you try and re pot the plant with a thin weak stem, if snaps or breaks, you will kill the seedling
     
  12. i didnt know this is my first grow

  13. Pretty stretched out girl. Take a look at other grows to get a better idea of what's ideal:D
     
  14. its all good, bury the stem a little for strength..move closer to light/or/put outside in sunny area, and im sure he/or/she will be fine

    it will be fine if you got fluros get them inches to the plant like 2" put your hand just above your plant and if you can leave your hand there and it feels fine then your plant will be comfortable too. 400w how ong are the tubes how many have you got thats alot of wattage for one seedling a a few 30w cfl will donit for a weeknor so to reduce the strech. get as much light roun her as poss

    as said bury the stem as much as poss and use a wooden kabab stick with some wool round stick and plant then you be ok

    also a fan can help with strength but dont out fan on her still you got her supported and much a possible
