What to do if some plants grow faster than others

Share

 

  1. You can grow plants with different growth rates, but make sure they all get enough light 

    1. If you notice one plant growing slower than the rest, make sure it gets direct light by trimming the bigger plants if they're casting shadows. 

    2. You can also use support sticks to keep the largest plants in place (paste the link to it here).

    3. If a plant doesn't get enough light, it will grow very slowly, as plants depend on light to photosynthesize. Remember that the plant light should be about 4 inches (10-12 cm) above the plants.

  2. The speed of plant growth also depends on temperature - the warmer, the better 

    1. The optimal temperature is 20-25°C, and anything above 20-21°C is great! If it's below 19°C, the plants will grow very slowly.
