your stems are that way because the light the plant has received has not been strong enough. bury the stem in more dirt and if you're growing inside get more light closer to the plant.

you also need to add some perlite to your soil to help drainage.

read up in the faq and stickies in each forum and you'll have a successful grow.

For three weeks, yeah, they look pretty sad, but as long as they're still green and alive, there's still hope. Bigger pots, more soil in them, and try to get them closer to whatever light you're using and they should be fine. When you do transplant them, bury that stem a few more inches and they'll straighten up for you.

Just transplated into bigger pots, so that may help. When shuld i transplant into their final pots, which will be about 3-5 gallons. Also being outside in a semi-exposed area should give them enough sunlight correct?

and how much should i water them? plus where do you get perlite? sorry for the begginer questions.

Thanks :weed:

They're small for 3 weeks, and they appear to be stretched. The problem is that they're not getting enough light. You will need to add more light to the setup.

Answer these questions for a more detailed answer:

-How big is the grow space?
-What kind of lights are you using?
-What's the wattage?
-How far above the plants are the lights?

Spray them with water once a day (if you haven't already, go pick up a small spray bottle).

You can get Perlite at Ace Hardware, Home Depot or a gardening store. Some grocery stores may have them. You can also go to Walmart.

If you're growing outdoors, being in a semi exposed area isn't going to do it. Marijuana plants need at least 18 hours of sunlight a day in the veg stage, and 12 hours in the flower stage. If they're in a semi exposed area, odds are that they're not getting enough sunlight.
