Stem not growing as fast as the branch
contrapunkstarted grow question 6y ago
The Two mainline branch seems to have more girth than the main stem. Any reason why the stem isn’t growing at the same rate?

I'm not quite sure what you mean? It looks healthy. You've done it correctly 👍🌱all stems will garden up eventually....

Wow, that looks like a weightlifter. Don't worry - I'm sure the stem will follow... soon it'll look like a proper trunk.

As your mainlines get more weight/size the stock will thicken.

Last week a couple of stems were going soft mid stem and becoming paper thin. Leaves all looked healthy. I think it was maybe a sign of over watering? Seems to be ok now but stunted the plant for about 5 days give or take. Would just like a rough idea to the causes.Week 4

What am I doing wrong? I thought I had a handle on tis.Can someone tell me what is wrong with my plant?
It used to droop badly but I fixed that (underwatering) and the plant looks a lot better.
Stalk was weak so I switched to "Veg" (mostly blue light) mode.
I also added proper nutrients which are helping even more.

Stem on plant appears to be narrow at the bottom growing beefier up higherThe stem on this plant appears to be narrow at the bottom growing beefier up higher. Any ideas on strengthening it up or will this hurt me further along?😲 I think this plant got knocked over once so perhaps thats it, just hope it doesn't choke the plant further along. Ideas?

My seedling just fell overAll of the sudden a healthy looking seedling decided to fall/bend over, it does have the thinnest stem of them all. Why is this happening and how can I prevent it with my other seedlings? Outside temperature is 24⁰ and I water them twice a day with pH-balanced water

Main Stem of seedling folding!Hi growmies, I need some help please. My babies are now at the beginning of their second week of life. I have realised that one plant has its stem bent, like if the main cola was too heavy to support. The others are fine, any suggestion on what is happening? 🙏🏽.. pls see pic.
