New Grower Leggy seedling

[bushdktr]

Hi guys, starting a new Critical Auto, and this is the second time it happens (I have a Fraggle Skunk going and the same thing happened at the begginng), she was ok the first 6 days and all of a sudden... She comes down!

And the following morning:

Last time I just left it and the plant started lifting again and no problems, I'm just curious about it. I have her under a 10W white LED, 10 cm. above the seedling. Looks healthy BTW

Any suggestions?

Thanks guys!

I've never heard of a 10 watt led.That is not near enough light to grow a decent plant.You need to get a bigger led light or some cfl bulbs.

Thanks Nam, this lamp is just for the first week, then I move her to the tent where I have a UFO LED + 2 CFLs. Last time, the same thing happened under the big lamps! That's why I'm asking, maybe it's just that they grow too fast the first few days?

Get her under your bigger lights asap.They get stretchy like that because there reaching for more light so don't be afraid to use more lights as soon as they sprout.

Great, thanks, tonight she will be inside the tent!

Can someone let me know how far from the pot, just breaking ground, I should have the lamp, which is 600w HID? Ta

Not sure buddy, I use LEDs and CFLs, as a rule of thumb, you put your hand on top of the plant and you should be able to leave it there without feeling heat

30 inches…then let the plant grow into the light until the top of the plant is 16-18 inches from the light and as the plant grows maintain that kind of height.
