FIM'ing Cannabis

Troubleshooting Stress
62

Thanks. I wonder if there’s a ways to cover the reds so they don’t peak through? There are very many reds but they’re definitely on. In the meantime and until I get the red issue figured out, I’ve moved the lights up from 18” to 22.

I have a different led light (white lights only) but it’s just 150w.

I want this girl to start stretching!

Is there any other way to encourage stretching?
Anyone else have this type of light that can guide me on what to do with the reds?

Thanks so much.

No clue about those lights. We dropped our lights to 50% and raised them. It took around 2 weeks but they did stretch a good bit.

i’m with @Shadesfang Raise the light up to about 26 " should space the nodes out a bit. Good luck

Ty for the tag
I agree with the others
Raise your lights about 40 inches and go from there.
Give a day or two and adjust as you see necessary.
Good luck and happy growing

If you really want to just dim the red LEDs…

And they are removable.

Keep your red lights on if you want stretch.

Don’t judge your lights by height…

Check it with a DLI meter like Photone

Raising the lights worked like a charm. Plant stretched about 2.25 inches since my inquiry 6-days ago.

Whomever said things would look a bit strange after Fim’ing didn’t lie. She growing well though!

Any other advice?

Thanks a ton!

Hello everyone!
Thanks a lot for the tutorial! I did my first fim one week ago and that’s the result. For the first one (photo 1 and 2) I’m really not sure if I did it right or not. The plant never stopped growing so she was not really stressed. And I’m not sure where I need to look. The cut was here (blue line) The new stem should grow here (red circle) or not? I’m not sure…

I’m planting outdoor so I maybe need more time to see result?

The second one is really better (photo 3). The plant stop growing for 4-5 days and now I think that I can see 4 new stems (blue circle).
I’m right?
