You got any light leaks in there when the lights go out? Looks like it might be revegging. When the lights are off check to make sure it’s pitch black in there. You don’t want light getting in at all.
Just been checking timer and it seems ok. When I manually advanced the timer it went on and off at the right times. It's a custom double walled cabinet so no possibility of light leak. Some of the other dense buds have sprouted at the top and I'm worried they will go the same way the other did :(.Thanks for the reply JWM2, It's definitely pitch black in there, but your comment made me want to check my timer!
The temps are always between 22 and 26 Celsius. However, the cabinet in in a garage and weather has got colder last few weeks. So when I water it each day temp can drop to 17 Celsius for 15 mins. Could this be enough to cause stretch?What’s the temp day/night?
Sounds like you run a mechanical timer..They usually have plastic gears that strip, rendering them useless (and fk up our plants)..I only use digital timers (under $15 usd)..Harbor Freight Tools has it for $10..much more reliable and versatile.Just been checking timer and it seems ok.

Any other ideas as to what might be causing this? Thanks in advance..
(I'll further test the original timer tomorrow)
I'm going to pick up a digi timer as a better long term solution. I think the mechanical one was working fine though.Sounds like you run a mechanical timer..They usually have plastic gears that strip, rendering them useless (and fk up our plants)..I only use digital timers (under $15 usd)..Harbor Freight Tools has it for $10..much more reliable and versatile.

I'm fairly sure the watering/ nutes are good and the lights are within 6-8 inches of buds that have stretched. In fact, it's the buds closest to the lights that have stretched most.
Thanks- I haven't checked at the buds. I'll have a feel for heat tonight.Have you checked the temp right at the buds? 550w 6-8 inches away seems really close. Looks like foxtailing and biggest cause is too much heat. Just my opinion.
LOL wow do i know what you mean. The first time I smoked the train wreck i grew i almost took my deck plants down. After getting threw a few doobs the effect is less paranoid....or you get used to it.C99 grows fairly dense nugs. It does like to stretch but this seems extreme to me. It’s been a few years since I’ve grown it but it was a nice strain. Too paranoia inducing for my personal taste. It made me almost rip out my grow several times after smoking it.
Def no light leak, I swapped out the timer for a digi timer (but old mechanical timer seemed to be working on test).your plants have reverted to reveg look at those single bladed leaves fellas. And the foxtailing is crazy as well. But from my house looks like a veg reversion is happening. Photoperiod or light leak issues??
If it were me.....For sure..LOLDef no light leak, I swapped out the timer for a digi timer (but old mechanical timer seemed to be working on test).
Helpful folk on here have suggested too much heat so I'm going to check that and raise side lights.
I've put so much work into this, I don't know whether I should laugh or cry...
*laughing turning into sobbing*If it were me.....For sure..LOL

Heat is not the cause of those 1 finger leaves bro. Please confirm that I am seeing correctly it appears from your pics that the upper leaves are 1 or 2 fingers only which would be an indicator of reveg heat wont cause revegging.Def no light leak, I swapped out the timer for a digi timer (but old mechanical timer seemed to be working on test).

Exclusively light leaks or poor light or your timer isnt right problem i thinkHeat is not the cause of those 1 finger leaves bro.
