Add more soil to fix stretching ?

[LeMarv7]

Hello wonderful community.

Im just recently started my second grow, two fastbuds autos (jack, gorilla cookie) but because im leaving in a warm place (around 30C°/ 86°F) the seedling started to stretch a bit, as far as i read/look around the net it doesnt look that bad but im wondering if i can add more soil to help them stay more rigide or this kinda of solution will harm them more than benefit.

they are both 2 weeks old (i think they stun a little due to temperature)
using a 100w led lamp, not the greatest but im waiting that temperature decreases a bit to start using my mars hydro 600

thanks in advance for any tips but mostly because im learning a lot here

Lots of room there to add soil.

I usually like to keep the soil about 1" down from the top of the bag but it does help to mound the soil up around the seedling.

In your case, I would cover at least half of those stems.

Helps keep them upright when you water, DAMHIK

And lower the light...

You could add more hours to your light schedule.

Thanks for the tips, i just lowered my light a bit and plan to add more soil soon. Glad my ladies are doing decently since is my second growth, look forward to see the result (i lack of patience sometimes lol )

The soil appears to be very loose and dry.. I'd water until runoff, then let completely dry until you water again. Seedlings need humidity..

My seedlings only get what they can drink in three or four days.

Usually takes up to a month before they get a full watering in a 3 gallon fabric bag with ProMix HP.

I fully water mine.. But, that is in perpetual living soil fabric pots of various sizes, 3-7 gallon. The microbes and Myco in all soil need it so they can continue to thrive. I'm not teaching my plants to handle a drought, I'm teaching them that there will be a consistent water source available to help regulate consistent transpiration throughout the entire grow cycle from start to finish.

85 degrees shouldn't be a problem for autos. I've done 85 degrees for an entire run several times with no problems.

What was your RH during late flower ?
Did you follow any VPD chart to help keep good plant transpiration ?
