Any advice on how I can get this to grow taller? The current grow light setup has it about 1’ away from the lights so I was wondering if depriving it from light would help

  1. The leaf curling suggests the light might be a bit too bright

    If your previous container was very shallow and wide maybe that would explain it

  2. You generally need to give the plant a reason to grow taller, if it’s getting all the light it needs it’s gonna stay more or less the same and grow slower, try moving the light higher

  3. Stinger bonnet? I’ve never heard of that pepper before

    Leave it alone and let it do it’s thing. It’s fine

    Indoor grower ? If so google vpd to get an idea what ranges you should be in. Then look up your light manufactures distance calculator to see how far away you should place your light. Utilize the “photone” ap to see how much ppf your putting on the plant. Obviously to much.

    It’s just building roots, once that is done it will shoot up.

    If your giving it everything it it needs it will grow when it needs to. Forcing it to grow won’t help anything and likely force it to grow taller instead of whatever it actually needs to do right now and you’ll likely be forced to stake it.

    Those super close leaves look like the grow light is a bit too heavy in the blue spectrum, It’s not an aquarium light is it?

    If the plant will be going outdoors, it will spread out.
