Top colas' stems and leaves are a bit, excessive!

Is that stem growth normal 5 weeks into flowering? I've read somewhere about excessive light causing profuse stem growth. All the plants buds did the same thing just to a lesser degree. 2 inches instead of 6.

I'm also a little curious about those curious two leaf leaves?

Anyway, check it.



I edited a bit out, feel free to kick me for my presumption.

doesnt look to bad, might be a little low on nitrogen. looks to me like a crazy breed, I done had some of those one leafers, was some good shit though. The stem looks healthy to me...

Gnarly. The timer for the light got turned forward something like 4 hours for a day or two before i noticed, thought my light burnt out. Then my light did burn out and my local store doesn't have agrosun red's in stock. Argh.

This bagseed has proven to be pretty diverse. That diversity and the 1 month veg has made for a FUN and EDUCATIONAL hobby. I'll even update my gallery, ha!

Hello there,

I have similar issues. It also seems to happen more to the main buds directly under the light. I'm moving my light higher to see if that works. Have you resolved the issue? Thanks!

looks fine... probably a sativa or with sativa genetics. Let it grow unless you see any major problems. They'll fill out.

BTW, why are you using PB Bloom soil in a hydro set up?
