Stretched Out

My buddy is about 3 or 4 weeks old, it's starting to get it's sex organs and I'm very excited that it is looking a lot more female than male. It was birthed spontaneously in the garage, getting fed minimal light until I noticed it and replanted it in a pot. The stem, I believe, is really stretched and had a hard time standning on it's own for the first few weeks. I was wondering if I should maybe plant it a bit deeper (more than the inch that its already into the pot)? Pics below

Thanks!

first your not gona see signs of sex till you start flowering..and what i do if my plants arnt stable ill just put more soil in my pot and compact it so the stem will stay up..also adding nutes will help the stem grow strong..since your in the veg state i recomend a high nitrogen nutrient like bat guano (organic)

Ya mon, repot that sucker good and deep till just the lowest leaves and a LITTLE of the stem is showing.

In the mean time, get a fan to blow on it some to help it thicken up the stem.

You could also use worm casting in the soil and/or make a tea out of it. I can get worm castings at my Wal Mart, figure its easier than trying to track down bat guano.

Good luck and happy growing.
