hi,i wouldnt be to concerned about weight gain at the moment.the quality of weeds has improved lately with lots of fresh plants available.i always kept a record of their length so i didnt automatically put any weight gain down to growth.being outdoors even for short periods can help prevent the dehydration caused by basking under lamps and the dry indoor environment,this alone can count for some weight change.
