Hey guys,
So I've successfully grew two harvests of white widow and wanted to try my hand at two other strains: Auroa Indica and Papaya from Nirvana seeds.
They're currently in their 5th week since sprouting. They were intitially under two CFLs until they sprouted and then transferred to a 400w MH. The problem I am having with both strains is that they are stretching big time. I'd say at least 2 inches between nodes right now. The light isn't too far from the plants. In fact, I am constantly moving it up as the tips of the plants are burning out.
My white widow had no such problem and the clones from the widow are bushy and at managable height.
Do you think it's the strains that are going super stretchy? My wife thinks they are root bound and are growing upwards. There are 8 plants in total, 4 from each strain, all showing signs of preflowers. Recommendations?
