my stem is bending over way too much help needed asap...

my 4 day seedling is leaning over way too much too the point were i have too re pot it and burry the stem a little so it could stand up straight.....why is it leaning over so much....my grow closet gets up too 83 decrees, i got a fan on them...please someone help..

light is too far away from the plant ...

agreed, what kinda setup are you using?

Sounds like it needs to be closer and you prop the stims up

Lights aren't close enough... do you have a picture or can you tell us more about your set-up... also - temps a little high...

Have you checked your trichomes today... RadioShack.com
Lots of good info in the GROWFAQ

seriously, bury it right up to the first set of leaves. there should be NO stem showing at all from the dirt right to that first set of real leaves, to minimize stem stretch which is what it sounds like you already have. keep a fan on them 24/7, they should shake a bit from the breeze. This will strengthen the stems ( it imitates a natural outside wind). post some pics so we can better see to help ya'

you can also add barricade from advanced nutrients it helps alot.

ya get that light closer with out burning them up.

Do some just do this tho I have 20 beans germin and 12 have poped and one of them is got a stringy long leanin over stalk cant it just happen? How could it be my light when the others are good? I guess i should add a fan tho I havent done that yet I thought I should wait a while but fan right away huh?

males tend to grow faster ten females

If you have a less than efficient light reflector some plants might not be getting as much light as others even though it appears so with the naked eye.

What was said about males growing faster is often times true so maybe they are just guys.

It could just be a slight difference in genetics from one bean to another, that is unless you grew from clones and then that can be ruled out.

Since some plants are doing well and others are stretching like they need more light if you are growing in pots raise the pots with the stretching plants some. Depending on how far they are from the light you may only be able to put a couple magazines or something under them or a piece of wood but that may be what they need based on where they are positioned under your light.

Are they ones that are more towards the outside of your light area or more directly under the best light rays? That right there might tell you if it is a lack of light or not though a cheap inefficient reflector could still be at least part of it and even a lack of good side reflection like Mylar or a flat white wall gives.
