Any info is appreciated!!

Well to start have these 2 plants about 4 weeks old, have a 2k lumen led light along with 6 100 watt cfls and about 100 green 3 watt leds for stem and leaf health. Watering about once a week, ph is about 6.2 average, not sure why one stretched the way it did considering the lights are only 1ft away. My brother started them with only 3 cfls and crappy yard dirt. Kinda threw a grow box together right fast, so don't mind there's no reflective siding yet lol. Any ideas why the stems grow separately rather then together? And how do they look? Any info is much appreciated

Not enough light... they are reaching for light. Cfl should be about 1 inch away from the plant. Why are they surrounded by a box? Show us a pic of your whole setup.

Maybe put the lights vertically

It is begging for more light

Ps... if you climb those things... you might find a giant with some golden eggs

He would say fe fi fo fum
Light my friend
You need some

Oh.... throw the green leds in the bin.

Take a pic of the other lights you have.. are you sure they are the right colours?

I have alot of lights at the top, didn't think to put them vertically, this is a week into having them, been a year since my last grow wasn't expecting him to say fuck em lol couldn't let them die

First one looks a bit yellow so likely hungry, second looks great, the others look fed but light deficient. Whatever you did to number 2 do to them all.

I woukd probably give the plants a haircut. Cut the top HALF of the plant and move the lights real close

 

[Deadhead6x]

Moved the cfls to 1 inch away brought down the led and one of the small tube lights down as well as the green leds on the side of the box now. Will keep posting every few days

the box is to keep my dog and cats from getting in them basically used a few card board boxes and tapped them to a tote box until I can get a new grow tent. Everything I had before we lost due to flooding so jus getting back into it.

Put up a couple pics of the bulbs your using
Modifications on some make a huge difference

 

[Deadhead6x]

The dimensions of the box are, 3 1/2 ft x 2 1/2 ft, about 5ft, I have 4 cfl 100 watts as shown I pic at the top, a led work light, it says 2k lumens but jus put that in today, have 2 2ft long bar lights (small t5s) and the 3 watt green leds about 100 of them didn't have much but making it work for now. Might have lost alot in the flood but I'm gonna make it lol

I wouldn't use that LED in blue I think it is like fake lighting when it comes to plants
But the rest should work

 

[Deadhead6x]

Thank you, will take it back out before it does harm. Will do a light test on it later and see what the specs are for it completely

Easiest test is how plants respond and by the looks of yours ...they don't

Agree.... these aren't agro lights.... that work light especially. I woukd take the green lights out too. Plants reflect green so mostly pointless.

Having the lights at the top of this box had given you stretch... potentially whack spectrum too.

There 6, 5k cfl 100wats, 2 2ft to bulbs 5k, Daylight, the led I took out but I've always had green leds during veg for the stem and leafs. Lowered the lights already. Jus moved to a new house and like I said wasn't expecting to get my brother's plants but here I am doing what I can to help them survive

 

[Billy the Mountain]

You need a real grow light

Green light for stem and leaf health?

 

[Deadhead6x]

Yes, always used green leds in my veg box. Grant it im still new, but I've used them before with good results. Flowering I'll have a RB 600 watt led, or a 1k watt haven't decided. Trying to get them in order, but that takes time and money I don't have right this second. Don't use cfls to much but the rest of my grow stuff was destroyed in the flood we had.
