You have the vegetating plants too close to your light. The stacking is far too close.

The spots look like thrip damage.

Spinosad is your friend there.

I posted in the LED forum and they said to keep my light 9-10in above the tops.

The yogurt cups...I understand. But it's a fluorescent light which the plants can be a lot closer to similar to CFL's

Do what you want of course. You can just tell from how the plant is growing that the light is too close. The plant shouldn't be stacking like that. You can tell that it wants you to back it off a bit.

Just remember that even autos stretch at the start of flowering, so thisIMAG0681.jpg
Turns into thisIMAG0815.jpg
So I think tight nodes are the least of the issues with this grow:peace:

That's exactly why I'm being patient. The stems are getting fatter. They are responding a lot quicker to LST. I'm not worried about their height. Just was wondering lol. Because your right! The plants stretch what? Another 50-100% in flower?

A plant can stretch 3x it's starting height I have flowered a 18 inch tall indica that's ending up at 4ft tall after 2 weeks of solid stretching, sucks shit cause now I have to have my light at the top of the room!

DAY 29 update:

No pics for this update.

But I moved my two money maker seedlings into Walmart bags and brewed with some stuff ;) wanna test this and see how it does in comparison with the dr. Earth organic. Which is in my 3 plant Northern box.

NYC Diesel from Barrnys farm popped today! The two in the yogurt cups.....guessing the other seed is a dud but I'll keep it germinating for a couple more days. Threw in my Dinafem OG kush seed to germ. This freebie I got was a big ass seed. So hopefully it becomes a big ass plant lmfao.

EDIT: I also changed my watering method today. I PH'ed my water at 6.2 with some cal mag and watered at the bottoms of my plants lol. Instead of dumping in straight down the stem.

I'll be going up shortly when the kids bugger off to school, so I can grab a few then, I watered mine yesterday and 1 plant took 5 litres of water without run off...

I wouldn't re plant it I'd leave it, another thing once you've put a plant outside don't fetch it back indoors, you might bring in pests... I would have a bash outdoors but ill wait till I move house (not keen on my neighbours)

My neighbors are cool. Except for the douches on the other side of us in a rental.....but with the money from my first harvest I'm putting up a brand new 6ft privacy fence around that side of the fence line lol. I'll also plants some lavender and stuff to kinda help with odor control.
