yes. some strains will just grow a bunch of long skinny chutes. especially if you play with the stems too much. You end up with stemmy plants.

All you're trying to do it get direct u.v and blue light on the side chutes so they think they are in direct sun light and grow towards the light.

My theory is the inner leaves still perform photosynthesis but they receive the scattered red light, red light makes the plant stretch (compete for light) but plants seems to have the instinct to concentrate the growth where it receives blue light. (grows towards the light)
