Is my plant too stretched out 5week old

Hey guys quick update and a question, is she too stretched out or is it okay .Cause I think there's too much space between each set of leaves and because I use a windows she got stretched. She is 5weeks old northern lights auto-flower and 35cm long with 10cm between each set of leaves .Also the pic is like this cause of privacy reasons.

Yeah. That's fine.

I'd top it above the second node and use the top to clone. Then I'd have two. lol
But that's just me. :)

Looks nice and healthy. Good job.

Shes getting lanky as hell. I'd suggest one getting out of the terracotta pot. 2 get her some light especially since it's an auto she would really enjoy 24hrs of light on her bits and don't over love that girl. Good luck.

No offence here but what on earth was the point of posting then?

Even if you train it better it’s still gonna get Lanky as hell because as you said you don’t have a light and it’s mainly raining now.

There really isn't much you can do under your circumstances. Just keep watering it. It is what it is and you'll get what you get. If you don't have the ability to provide it with a better light source then just keep doing what you're doing. It's going to be a stretched lanky plant that yields little but there's nothing you can do if you're getting your light from the window.

The point? To grow dude. I get as much enjoyment growing as I do smoking.

For a windows plant, he's doing great. A little warning though, the size of the plant is directly related to the size of the pot. Personally, I'd go up to a gallon or two at most. Regardless, the roots will fill the pot. That means watering and feeding a bit twice a day. But there's nothing wrong with just growing it like you're doing with other house plants. The downside is a small harvest, but if you don't mind, it's all good.

I alredy transplanted it once from a starter pot, should i transplant it a third time? I read that its bad transplating autos.

Yeah but he’s asking if it’s stretched knowing it’s stretched and knowing there is zero he can do about it. Lol.

I agree for a window grow it’s doing well.

Sun trough a window isn't going to give you much. On top of that windows for homes actively block uv and some light. If you're going to use the sun. Put it in a 20 gal pot at least and toss it outside. If not get you at the very least a decent grow light and go from there.

For your first plant, it looks healthy even if we can ignore the obvious stretching. You wont yield much if anything though, so don't get too excited if you can help it. You successfully managed to germinate and veg so far, that's actually quite the feat! After you're done with this plant, maybe you would want to be looking into a small 2x2 tent? They don't cost much and you will be able to try your green thumb on multiple plants instead of one. Good luck and good job!
