The smaller soil girl is finally looking better but the coco girl is a bit hurt'n and she's super croping herself. I ran out of head space so i cant move the light up any higher.

as you can see from mine I've had proper stretch issues my girl just keeps on growing
 
Can't you bend the top down? ie, tie it down with a piece of string down to the cup?

I gave some water and the cola straightened out a bit. I suppose now is the time to try a little LST.

I was following along and tried pinching the stem to try and slow the upward growth. I think it kind of worked but i needed to do it a few times.

I should of done mine really early but I'm a little late now
 
Technical question: What's everyone's take on runoff pH? Should I even worry about it if input ppm/pH is in range? I know ppm can be watched easily and if it starts climbing to back down the feed strength or up the input volume and runoff amount. If the runoff pH is dropping precipitously should I change anything or not worry about it?

I've been running in at about 520ppm for the last couple weeks and varying pH going in from 5.8-6.2 sticking to 5.9/6.0 as much as possible. Runoff ppm is sticking in the mid 400's, crept up to 615 but some extra volume brought it back to near 550 again. Typical irrigation volumes have been 250-300ml and getting an average of 70ml runoff, 20-30%.

However, runoff pH has dropped from 5.5 to 4.3 or lower! I watered in 520ml split between 7am and 3pm sessions. It went in at 520ppm and 6.1pH. Measured runoff before the evening watering at 198ml of runoff reading 424ppm and 4.0pH. I expected higher than usual runoff volume as I am less busy and can water 3x a day.

I was worried the runoff pH is far too low and there could be a salt build up despite the ppm numbers not suggesting it. I did calibrate the pH meter in case that was the culprit.

I just ran a full 1000ml of 400ppm 6.3pH through the cup. I broke it up into 4 250ml waterings.

4x250ml in with runoff at:

1) 112ml out 339ppm 4.6pH (evening watering)
2) 240ml out 365ppm 4.4pH
3)250ml out 385ppm 5.3pH
4)250ml out 392ppm 5.2pH

Should I worry about runoff pH at all or am I chasing a non problem? Plant looks fine except for maybe 4 leaves here and there.
 
Here my little 1 I’ve lost track of how old she is now So i need to go back and check old posts to figure dates out. She doing ok but got neglected on New Year’s Day because I was a bit worse for wear and done nothing that day sorry plants.

Here is my stretching seedstockers beanstalk at day 57 I've had to tape her with another cup onto a cane but she's a fucker to stop from falling also regarding my stretch its mainly my own fault as these are brand new sanlight evo and I was being cautious with the height as my others I had needed more space anyhow here's pics
