The flowering stage of cannabis growth is the reproductive stage.... Female plants grow flowers to catch pollen from male plants to produce seeds that will keep the species going.... The stretching is due to the fact that the plant itself knows that it needs to stretch to accommodate the flowers that are going to follow....
