Stem not growing as fast as the branch

contrapunkstarted grow question 5y 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?

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.

Snapped Plant One of my little guys was kinda snapped/snapped and peeled down a bit but not a full break in the stem. I created a little splint and taped it up and it’s kinda looked the same all day. Do you think it will survive or it a break of that kind at this size the end of it? 😢

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?

SNAPPED MAIN STEM HALF WAY DURING WEEK 5 (still in Veg)During LST I snapped the main stem of one of my Pineapple Express Autos. It very easily snapped almost completely off but it still has a few fibres left. I panicked &used duct tape and some sticks to keep it supported. Has anyone done this before? Is it successful? Yields effect?

Bad plant from bad seed? Keep or throw?So one of my girls germinated with only one leaf and is growing at a much slower pace compared to her sister (they germinated in soil within 24hrs from each other) I think it was a bad seed, is it worth keeping her? I've planted another now just in case 🤷🏽

Over water? Damping? Heat? Alive? Dead?Bent stem, possible damping off, still alive though two days later. Drooped day after, but droop is going away, not growing much though.
