well it's not dead, so yeah... it'll be a pain to manage though... all skinny and lanky at the bottom like that.

Get way more light to it... sun, CFL, HID, whatever... and I'd say stake it... it will thicken and such in time, but it will prob get (and be) top heavy.

Start here: https://www.rollitup.org/t/replant-those-long-stretchy-stems-its-easy.429767/

As has been mentioned the stretching is certainly a light issue. What are you using and how far the plants is it? Also, what medium are you using?

Oh and...

Welcome to RIU, and the wonderful world of cultivating the world's most misunderstood and feared medicines!!!

The only 'advice' I can give you or anyone is to read and learn and then apply what you have read and learned to your garden and you cannot fail. Anyways, remember the search tool is your friend...Lots of folks here willing to help a new farmer get up and growing. But at the end of the day your grow will be only as good as the knowledge and work you put into it.

It is always great to ask questions but do not take anyone's advice or opinions and follow blindly. And remember anyone may have a well-known member status…but that means they have posted and responded to many threads and does not always mean well-educated growerz. Do your own research, you will be much happier knowing you have done it for yourself and by yourself. The first buzz you get from your own budz...is by far the BEST high you will ever have!

Do a search using your current question as the keyword(s) and ZOOOM!! Like Wonka's Great Glass Elevator…off you go to tons of threads answering all your questions. Read all the Newbie Central stickies and learn…

Soaking up all that information and sifting through it, is going to take time. You will likely finish your first grow by then. Viola! grow complete and education well under way.

Ooo! get the right light and stop that stretching is easy

use daylight or 4k - 6500 kelvin bulbs

better is to replant in deep pots

I use Pick & Mix and Seed City. Very good & discreet service. Pick & Mix deliver super quick, but charge about £3.25 postage, Seed City, a bit slower but the postage is mostly free.
:peace:

This is an easy fix. Just get some deep pots and bury up to the foliage . Get some lights, fans and everything you need for an ideal grow environment

I've done this so many times with other plants... but since I've never had to with cannabis (cuz I've never had that problem... certainly not that big), other than a little top dressing and such, it just didn't click haha :wall:

Gee whiz...in America we imagine a seedbank on every corner with the way that they advertise over there! LOL!.

I have used a few banks. My personal faves are Discreet Seeds... free seeds with every order even if you only buy 1. In fact, I ordered one seed and got 2 freebies. I did business for a long time with single seed center...nothing wrong there, they were just out of stock on many of my seed choices last time. Next time out I am going to order directly from the breeder. I really love Barney's Farm strains and they have their own site...their freebies are of course their genetics which for me is an added plus.

I'm also from England so hi.

I would recommend Amsterdam Seed Center.

They are brilliant with so much great choice, variety and knowledge. I go to Amsterdam every year for a good old self medication trip and I've popped in to A S C for the past 5 years to buy my seeds in person. (check out the Reserva Privada collection)
I truly recommend thus seed bank
