So i got some seeds and theyve germinated and sprouted quite nicely

The only thing is that instead of growing by making more nodes and leaves it seems that it is just getting a taller stem and thats all. So im jw if this is normal or should i change my setup er sumtn. Thnkyou

you should try and get a couple more of those if possible and put them as close as possible without burning. With just one light it will take longer for them to go but they will, just be patient.

stick your hand under the light at the top of the plants and move the light down until your hand starts to hot, and the are all the lights above? you may want to put some on the sides.
