Stem not growing as fast as the branch
contrapunk
started 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.

Day 37 - Main Stem Split in Half on Manifolded Plant: Is the Plant Salvageable?
The stem on one of my manifolded plants has split in half at the base. I tried to salvage the stem by using garden tie knot with a zip tie to bring the halves back together. Is this going to kill the plant or is this plant salvageable? Thank you for your advice.

My seedling just fell over
All 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

How could I improve recovery chances of a broken/folded seedling stem?
My light accidentally fell on my seedling and broke the stem right below the first set of leafs. The stem, however, did not break in half but it folded over. I have added support to keep it straight. Is there anything else I could do to improve her chances of recovery?

Why is week-old seedling starting to fall over?
Why is the seedling in the foreground falling over? Is it from stretching? I planted it on January 28, and moved it to the tent a couple of days ago. It was doing fine until yesterday. (I've removed it from the tent and put it back under the CF bulbs in the bathroom.)

I think my 3 seedlings are forming too many leaves too quickly, which is causing the stems to bend downwards to the point of almost breaking. Is there anything I can do to make them grow thicker stems so they can support their leaves?

Raspberry Kush auto starting to tilt/lay over, 4 days above soil? Bottom pot in pic
My first auto grow and about 5 days in the one plant is starting to tip to one side. If this a light issue? Is it stretching to much? Using a TS1000 at 100% from 24 inches away. It was fine up until this morning then notice it was tilting to one side. 76f 50rh.
