It seems like everytime I compare my seedlings, mine are bigger and better.... At this time, Im using [Espoma Organic All Purpose Mix] in addition, Im feeding with DynaGro 7-9-5. And used drained Coffee Grain Nitro, refrigerated. With tap. Also you see I brought the helpless seedling back to life by building a clay like volcano shaped stem cast and look at it now....View attachment 3357279 View attachment 3357280 View attachment 3357281

They started off in peat moss mix, just smaller jiffy pots but they are in the same mix still. I picked up some perlite and a different bag of soil for their next transplant. And no i really don't know much about their growth stages haha. Is the stretch bad? I will go measure the heights right now

Stretch is BAD PERIOD!!! You have to UNDERSTAND the danger ahead which can be fixed now... The danger is at the stretch rate youre going now WILL NOT support the buds at all. You want to make sure your veg stages are all the way righteous because what you do in your veg determines the outcome and or results of your flowering stages. Thus becareful with the cardboard box!!! Fire and humidity issues... How much wattage you working with at this time?

What I would do is LST IMMEDIATELY!!! What will happen is youll reduce awsome stretch, and youll be able to adjust lighting at a solid 3 inches to keep your plants short thick and strong. Good stem structure. Also when you lay them down or tie them down the main stem will pass seniority to the side branches and they will slow down with a sweet stress (Low Stress Training) awesome stuff... As this happens like i mentioned the closeness of lighting will keep them short and nice and youd prune as you go...

Right now they are under 2 75w 6500k cfls, as soon as I move them to the tent they will be under 4 of them, so 300 watts then. Do you think this will work? And I just left home for a bit but I will try some LST when I get back. What makes you think it looks male? How can you tell? I got the seeds out of a bag of weed so I have no clue the sex of these.

Could the stretch also be due to my light cycle? I was told to run them 24/0 for the first 2.5 weeks then switch to 20/4 for 0.5 weeks then to a 18/6 for the rest of the time. Is this accurate?

Your lighting for now is ok in the sq ft... Switch the cycle asap to 18/6 and let it remain consistent the whole veg cycle.
