What size is your light. You will need about 100 watts of light for a single pot plant.
This is a very basic question and we do not mind basic stuff but you may be needing to do some basic research about growing pot
I recommend www.growweedeasy.com
It will answer all the basics of growing pot like strain, light, temp, humidity and nutrition needs.
A pot plant should not get that stretched for many reasons. When the stems are that thin they can not support the weight of the growth. In addition lights to grow pot indoors fade the taller the plant is. At the top the light is strong but 15 inches down it is weak.

Proper light is needed.
Hi this is a gorilla auto cookies does this auto flower need to be flicked to 12 hours on 12 hours off
Like others have said get your lights closer and hopefully you will see a difference, remember auto's flip into flower on their own so no need to change light schedule,I keep my light schedule 18/6Hi this is a gorilla auto cookies does this auto flower need to be flicked to 12 hours on 12 hours off
You grew your own smoke and had fun doing it without spending a fortune ,I have limited space to grow. I grew this plant in two months auto flower sour diesel in a closet with one 25 W LED light no need for expensive equipment. I’m getting by just fine just enough where I do not have to buy weed any longer. I have three sour diesels growing outside. Also, we have a short summer here in Long Island, New York.
If I was you I would invest in a small grow tent or make a frame and wrap it with black/white sheeting so the plant gets as much light as possible as you wouldn't want any light escaping but bouncing back on your plant .I got the light this close 18 inch
You can buy a light off Amazon the issue is you understanding how lights work and how plants grow. We all learned by trial and error but myself, i studied and gained info by watching and reading how other growers grew plants. I have gardening skills and know certain things about plant growth, lighting and temps/enviornment. You as the grower need to research these things and learn about it all.
Them buds definitely look good to me .This is my first time growing also I bought 2 25 W LED lights from Amazon $30 apiece and a $18 fan that I’ve been growing in my little closet in my basement. I don’t think I need to spend too much money to what I need.
Auto flower strains will go into bud no matter the light or what you feed .I moved the light closer and using nutrients it’s staring to bud
Thank you I am not trying to grow pounds of weed if I can end up with 1 ounce for the summer and one more ounce for the winter indoors, I’m good to go. I do not have a lot of room for a big tent in my basement. I have a fireplace in one room and a ping-pong table in the other room so I’m using the small closet That I have adjacent to it I have two plants growing and they are both doing great at least I think so with 25 W LED lights and one small fanThem buds definitely look good to me .
Well done![]()
I'm the same ,I grow so I don't need to buy any and to be honest I stopped smoking 4 years ago so everything I grow goes into edibles so I don't use anywhere near the amount I used to when I smoked.Thank you I am not trying to grow pounds of weed if I can end up with 1 ounce for the summer and one more ounce for the winter indoors, I’m good to go.

I agree, I set up a 2x2x 4 tent, (didn't have much room) and 3 LED light, and I already harvested 1 auto purple juice, I got 28 grams out of it after cleaning and drying (small plant), serious sativa weed, love it! Already started a new one.If I was you I would invest in a small grow tent or make a frame and wrap it with black/white sheeting so the plant gets as much light as possible as you wouldn't want any light escaping but bouncing back on your plant .
in my opinion you need to make that space smaller .
