Young plants grown indoors need a fan blowing on them to imitate the wind outdoors. This helps to grow thicker, stronger stems. Also, if they don’t get plenty of sunlight, they will grow tall and slender. One more thing, at night the plants should be placed in a cooler place to help grow healthy stems.
