Skinny Tall fruits

I was just wondering why they would be growing skinny and tall when FAE and Humidity levels are good. Also....when the caps start turning a little black in the center is that normally a sign of Abort?

unfortuantly not. My phone refuses to send picture messages for some reason. and my camera connect cable is broken. So im just going off what i can describe.. (There is no Fuzzy base syndrome as a sign of low Oxygen) There is condensation build up on the sides of SGFC as a sign of good humidity, however it seems the majority of fruits are ready to break their veil at 2"-3" and very skinny, some bluing at base and black spots forming at cap, which makes me believe they are aborting. just wanted a 2nd opinion. Thanks

If the other parameters are OK, then it's insufficient light.
However, there should NEVER be condensation on the sides of a shotgun terrarium, so I suspect insufficient fresh air. RR

The condensation isn't so much an indicator of humidity as it is an indicator of a temperature differential between outside and inside of FC.

Condensation is formed when there is a temperature differential, not from high humidity.

when you mist your cakes the water that gets on the sides should be dry by the time you spray again

...and a properly made SGFC shouldn't have enough of a temperature difference to cause condensation. If it does, then you are not likely getting good FAE
