u could would transplant into bigger container, tall 5-7 gallon would be perfect this way u can set the plant little lower & be able to back fill in up to the 1st set of leaves . leave a little space & u would never know it stretched & also have stronger support wont be flimsy . drop light . what type of light u using ?

we’re u able to find a bigger pot ? when u able to , transplant & sit the plant little lower & fill soil up so that will help u minimize that stretching & it will give plant some support & with light closer u be all good . I’m not familiar with the light u using , does it have any type of dimmer switch on it ?

yea I did I put it in a 5 gallon and just going to add soil as needed

I wouldn’t wait to long to fill the pot up. that main stem could break if it not filled . I would pull off the 2 sets of leaves that are dead & fill up to where the 2 sets of dead leaves are for structural support . u don’t want any dead leaves anyway, will attract pests

would you suggest topping?
CannaBee99
I wouldn’t do any topping or fiming yet . I would let the plant build up strength. when it stretches plant uses a lot of stored energy. what I would do is a light feeding of vegetative food @ 1/4 strength. definitely wait till she grows a few more set of leaves & see how plant is doing

anytime . if u have any questions dont hesitate to ask me or anyone else on here .let the plant get some sun light for few hours a day , dont overdo it with sun , u can also keep it in shade for awhile. make sure it getting 18 hours of light & u be ok . these plants can take a beating
that's some crazy stretching
move closer to light?
