Stretchy Seedlings And Light Distance

[justicebzwieg]

Tall, thin seedlings falling over in the first week are reaching for light, not suffering from anything in the soil. Indica seedlings should be stocky, so if yours are leggy the lamp is too far away or too weak, and burying the stem up to the leaves at transplant will rescue them. Recommended distances and intensity settings for common LED and CFL setups during the seedling stage are collected on https://kushindicaseeds.com, which saved me from guessing. Once corrected they usually thicken up within a few days.
