Sweet gelato auto pistils at 5 inches tall

I have a sweet gelato auto from sweet seeds. I had started it about a month ago. This morning I checked and its already shooting pistils.. About 5 inches tall. It had an issue when it germinated and the shell popped off a little to soon and it looked premature which set it back like a week or so. But seems real early to me. This is my first indoor auto and just seeing what everyone thinks?

Not bad at all what type of light are you using? Mine was about same size with a 100 watt hlg qb I’d recommend getting them about 150$ for 100-120 qb boards all set up
Its under a cdmall 1200w 240 actual watts. .the light does amazing for me . these are random bag seeds I have under this light. 70 bucks for the light. Couldn't be happier

Its going to stretch for flower now, seems like you're a little behind, maybe its the smaller pheno type that smells more citrus. I've grown 3 times, 2 out of 3 were the thin mint pheno as far as i could tell and one was sunset sherbert pheno. They were all good smoke, no growing issues, would grow again.

Someone had also mentioned, it can be difficult for seedlings to mature in a larger pot sometimes. I thought that might have some merit as well.

I also don't think this topic merited its own thread since we are discussing this all in the fast buds gelato thread.

At the moment, the sweet gelato and related crosses have a small margin of growth above the fast buds gelato which i assume will start flowering soon as well and we'll all be waiting to see whos fill out the most in the flowering and stretch phases. I honestly think our results have more to do with our growing than the genetics were using.
