Is this right?

Hi Fellow Growers,

I have been growing a AK48 plant for a couple of weeks now, but I am not sure if it is mean't to look like this, I will admit that the conditions I was growing it before were not the best but I think I have got the conditions right now, and hopefully, if someone has a look at my pictures, you can tell me if I should start again or may be able to start it again somehow?

What I have set up in my grow room/closet is a 400w mh bulb, fan, temp between 26 and 30 ( not sure about humidity ) and I water it with rain water every 2nd day making sure the soil is not too wet ( if you know what I mean ).

Any help/suggestions would be appretiated, thank you in advance!

Wow. She's trying to high five your grow lights man. The lighting system is too high above her. You not bringng down the lights as close as you should. That tall skiny stem is a sign of your air flow being real weak too. There's no wind to toughen up your plants stem. Get the lights as close asnpssiboe without any heat stress & get the fan gong on her to thicken up her ten but dnt make it a constant rough air flow. Something that will cause a gentle sway.

she looks all good just a lil skinny
you may want to top or fim it in a couple weeks

also you could transplant it and put all that stem underground to become roots
plant undr the first set of true leves

Yeah she's fine dude just a little tall. Please do consider planting all that stem underground. Too tall & she could topple over. Fan goes 24/7 man. She'll breath good & thicken up. She has a healthy green & leaves look pretty plump.

Wow you guys aren't helping this guy out at all. That plant looks awefully stretched. How high is your light? I'm guessing your light is up there because it's too hot otherwise.

I'm guessing you don't have good ventilation? Need some good sized fans to keep that temp. where it's at now, but with the light about 12" from the top of the plants. Maybe 18" if you don't mind them a little stretchy.

Gotta rethink the whole thing and figure out how you are going to move a lot of hot air.
