Is it bad that my plants grown under LED are not stretching so much?

This plant is being grown under my 54w custom led panel 18/6 lighting (5 blue, 13 red @ 3w each) its about 6-7" from the led lights (lowered it to let it stretch a little bit). The picture here is about 3 days old so theres a few more nodes now ill post a pic later when my lights go back on.

Looks like a happy seedling to me my friend. And if I'm not mistaken, in order to stretch your plant out you'd want to raise your light so that she can reach for it. Good luck, hope I helped.

No. That's a sign that your plant is getting a good amount of light and it will grow more foliage and a dense structure as opposed to a tall leggy plant with less bud sites.

picture as of day 13 does it look really good? Does this mean my buds will be tight & have a nice sized cola

It does look a little tight/small for a two week old plant. It's a seedling and IMHO it just doesn't need that kind of intense light at first. And while the fan leaves are pointed toward the light, they appeared cupped, which could be a sign of heat stress. Plus what strain is it? Could just be the strain too. Good Luck and Happy Growing atb.

Man looks nice!! I'm a led user too nice!!
Maybe u should change the distance of your led but in my opinion u can keep as close u can without problem, just be alert about bleaching your leaves, otherwise no problem about the distance
