Weak stalk

macauleyj21started grow question 4 years ago
I started growing my hindu kush x kush on my window ledge in the UK. When I realised it wasn't getting nearly enough light I ordered a little grow light and turned a cupboard into a grow room. However I am concerned my stalk is a bit too week. any help? Have already transplanted.

Give her a little stronger breeze and that will help to strengthen that stalk. You can also give plants a silica supplement and that really helps build strong resilient plants. And just keep up the stronger lights...a little sunshine each day isn't bad too as long as its hard and bright, as soon as it goes past the window...move it back to the supplemental lighting. 👍

A small fan creating a breeze AROUND your plant(dont blow fan directly at her) will cause the plant to sway. That sway will strengthen and thicken the stalk. You could also get a silica additive. Silica swells the plants cell walls thickening them... in return thickens and strengthens your branches. Happy growing and stay lit fam

Hey buddy. Your going to need a fan in order to build stem up. The plant needs some resistance in order to grow strong .......like humans
