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?

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.

Have I just killed my plant??
Oh no!! I think I've snapped the main stem! Can't see a cut or break in the stem, but I definitely heard it snap. I was trying to train the main stem to same height as the rest of the canopy. Autoflower, 2 weeks into flower. Have I fucked it??

Has the little girl hatched anything 2 days ago? It's a Double Cookie Auto. In the other report of the strain, it looks almost the same. It's just dark green and not that strong. Ideas? No nutrients and pH 6, lamp 50cm.

Any ideas what happened here
Hey any idea what happened here? I thought it was too much light but the stem is brown like it's dieing. It's the only spot on the plant and the only stalks that are taller than the rest.
