My plants have been on 12/12 for 23 days now. They've undergone an incredible growth spurt, more than doubling in height. However, most of the growth has be vertical. Not much new leaf mass has been added (although the buds seem to be coming in nicely).

Originally I had 6 plants under 6 36w daylight CFL's. When I switched to flowering, I changed to 42w cool white CFL's. I also ended up getting rid of three of the plants - 2 males and one because it wasn't performing. So effectively, I've more than doubled the amount of light per plant.

The strain I'm growing is a 70/30 indica/sativa mix. It's a custom strain from amsterdammarijuanaseeds.com. A more experienced grow that I talked to believes that it's a haze/blueberry cross of some sort.

The first two pics are from day 15 of 12/12. The last one is from two days ago (Day 21). Is this stretching normal?
