Are the plants in veg still in small pots? Mine look the same mate I guess its a 1.2 x 1.2 but mine were looking a stretchy even with light as close as I dare, I have it on full twat 24 hrs 600 watts cool shade with no glass, its about 9-12 inch off now and its all looking better but I was thinking of trimming off some lower nodes and burying them lanky bits deeper down when I take em into the big room tomorrow? Wondered if they would still root from the stalk like a clone, even though the base roots were still on?
are you veging under a mh or hps?
stretch is strain dependent if it's not your lighting...is it possible you're growing a different strain to him..maybe a big lanky sat dom slut? Or maybe a male?!!!

BF Blue Cheese 3rd generation crop,1L pots, 3 weeks vegging in little pots, since rooted. I bleedin well ope there's no males!!! Metal Halide 600w, 85% RH 24/7 light at 23c and its all fine now they are tight, or at least tight enough for me anyway. I think the problem was a combined fear of scorching them with a new bulb and the small pots that I popped them in after the clones rooted. I trimmed all the shite off the base and give em a good feed whilst I was working away, come back and they have this 2 -3 inch gap on a 15" plant, its really pissing me off! What I have never done though is re-potting deeper down in the big pot (30 litre Coco/Hydraclea) I thought I could bury the lanky bit under the surface, let it grow as normal and start letting them fill out? Has anyone tried it and does the stem grow roots from the chopped nodes as it does during cloning, I will be leaving the root ball on as it is....

Erm don't get us shit unless you've a step down transformer handy they 120v bro we be 240...don't want to blow up shit now do we
Thanks mate. Do you mean the LEC fixture I mentioned? It comes ready for 240V. Separate models for either 120V or 240V http://growershouse.com/sun-system-lec-315-light-emitting-ceramic-mh-fixture-240v. ATM the 315's are going for USD$430 plus intl delivery and probably 20%VAT (assuming customs are on the ball), so I reckon £350 or so delivered. But I don't want to go the HPS route and I'd rather buy fewer high end LED panels to start out and 1 of these until I can get fully LED'd up later on! Don't want to bother with the cheapo LEDs at all and in the UK, the only local top notch panels I can find are the Budmasters (with Osram diodes), but they're more than I can pay. More inclined to buy some A51 lights from the USA and 1 of these LEC fixtures for the time being, or maybe Hans (as a backup option). Once I have some skills and some knowledge, maybe I'll DIY something better or pay top whack for a Budmaster, although by then, no doubt there will be newer tech' available, like commercial COB panels or something else.

I got a Kind Light XL750 LED which has been sat 18/6 over my mothers, its a proper job but silly money and regardless of what we say this LED business will be the donkeys fuckin nuts and everyone will be on it within 2 years! My cousin makes LED panels for a living but I can't really ask him owt cos he doesn't know I grow... I bet CFL lights are dead by the end of year 2015, they really are the pits in my humble opinion!

Do any of the UK growers in here use an Alien Hydroponic system or have any info about their reliability and quality or the company's dealing with customers?
