Improving growth on lower branches

SpaceGreenstarted grow question 5 years ago

What can I do to improve the growth on lower branches? I've already topped my plant, but I'm still a newbie on training techniques. Thank you for your help!

You can LST ( low stress training) the top branches by bending them down so the lower branches can catch up. Look up LST videos on youtube if you not sure how to do it. Good luck!

Coco and Worm Castings - Does Total Dissolved Solids Matter?Does total disolved solids (TDS) matter when growing in coco, worm castings, and organic dry ammendments? Am I at risk of a build up of salts? I have seen 2700 ppm in my current grow, but are these simply not salts and therefore OK? Plants look good happy. TY

So, in the last week, I have seen absolutely no growth in my plants...any of them. They seem to have stalled themselves out after they popped up from the dirt. Is there something I'm missing here? Normally I see them bulk up at this point.

Can I leave my plant growing in this 90 degree angle after accidentally snapping her stem?Can I leave my plant growing like this? I can either set her back up completely or leave it at a about 90 degree angle if that doesn’t kill her off! Would give the rest more light. I accidentally snapped her but not completely. (Sorry couldn’t update my previous question)

Can you put your plants into veg after one day of 12/12??I accidentally left the timer on 12/12 in one of my tents I was supposed to flick it onto 18/6, If I revert it back to 18/16 quick after only one day of 12/12 will this do anything or just slow the veg process down?
