[SukonmiSkunk]

what are you feeding it and at what ppm's..??

What is the PH on the run off?? also what is the ph of the nutes before you water?

also what sort of medium have you got and what is the drainage like??

[Shithappens]

Clones???

If not maybe they are males???

 

Lighting not strong enough??

 

I would tip them now and yeh get a new bulb for your lights !!!

 

Also I see no fan man whats blowing on them??

[WantDaChronic]

i didnt see a fan in there either, but if you do have one in there i would turn it up or replace it with a stronger one because they look fairly healthy, the light is close enough, etc. and the only stretching like that i have seen in my grow rooms is when i havent had enough wind blowing over the plants or the light was too far away

Fuck me, that's some serious stretch ya got happenin!! I know sativas can stretch a lil, but as suggested, maybe your globe needs replacing. Got me buggered if you have your light that close

Good tip WDC, I'd def have a fan on those babies to toughen em up

[smoke p]

males i had the same prob

[smoke p]

thy dont fill out ether mine looked the same to urs in every way but mine where like a meter bigger

[Frazz]

Yea thats what i meant SW, I think the globe is worn out ... how long has it been used for?

Like if nothing else is different and the nutrients and potting mix are the same as what you usually grow with, and you've never had this problem well it only really leaves the globe that may be performing below standard.

I do agree that air movement is nessacery, but i gotta gut feeling about the globe

hope you sort it out mate
