Stretching seedlings :(

[Pink]

Hi Odlar

Does your light manufacturer give optimum distances for germination, veg and flower?
I’m using similar lighting.
My manufacture (MEIZHI) is- inches
24 for germination
18 - 24 veg
12 - 18 flower
Don’t know if that helps at all, but hope your grow goes well 😊

I’m using similar lighting and I think maybe it was too far away at 40cm?

its exactly same heights, did you have 18 inches at Seedlings too? They were streathing so much (

No I was at 24 inches until they had been above soil for a few weeks then lowered it down over a few days to 18.
How old are yours? I’ll find a pic of mine at similar age to compare if you like?

Ebay item 253470792234 There it is. I got 2 of those.
What do you think. its so hard with led to get the right height....

There's not really much to go on in the ad... probably best to measure the draw from the wall.... all I can really see is Lux readings that are a little short of what I would expect (My 250w HPS has 50% more lux!)

Honestly I’m a total beginner. There are so many knowledgeable people on here but LEDs can be difficult because they are not very uniform.

My seedlings at a week looked like this and my light was 24inches away from the leafs.

It’s a brilliant community here. People will help if they can.
I’m almost the the 5 week mark and I wouldn’t have made it this far without the guys and girls here.
I’ve learnt loads. I’m sure you will too 😊
