The Strectching Seedling

Discussion in 'Growing Marijuana Indoors' started by snowuninc, May 6, 2006.

  1. sup city, At what point would you say that a seedling is stretching to do lack of light or what ever may cause it? in terms of length of the stem i guess. im refering to like a plant less then a week old.
     
  2. what's the distance from the soil to the first leaves?
     
  3. about an inch, im not concerned yet. im asking more for a reference so that i can spot the problem if it happens
     
  4. one inch is not bad for a seedling.

    Just make sure you light is not an Incandescent light.

    Make sure your Flourescent that your using is almost touching the seedling, anything further away will cause it to stretch.
     
  5. 2.5" or more, and I'd say you're starting to stretch
