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

¿¿Que debería hacerle a la planta ??Le están saliendo tallos por abajo pero no les da la luz porque la planta tiene cuatro hojas grandes que tapan toda la planta.
¿ creéis que debería quitar las 4 hojas y abrir la planta por abajo o cortar los tallos de abajo y centrarme solo en la parte de arriba ? Le hice FIM

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??

Mashrooms and Plants HeightIs the height of the plants too much? They seems too high and weak.
As you can see in the pictures I have to remove mashrooms every day, I reduced humidity value down to 55% and I keep open the room window and closet door to ensure air recirculation. Is it so bad?

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?

How long should I wait before watering my plant, causing the newly added soil around the stem to get wet? The old soil underneath still has some moisture.I added more soil and buried an inch of the stem because of an accident that I had. To prevent stem rot I used dry soil. She has recovered from the accident. How long should I wait before watering her and causing the newly added soil to get wet? (details in diary)

MAIN STEM BROKENBroke my stem doing LST last week
Tried to put it back together but when I came back to see them yesterday the ridge was even bigger. Will they survive eventually?
I put some rocks under the main branches to support them. Plant seems to be doing fine.

It's still not growing...First set of true leaves I noticed a brown spot and feeding a little cal-mag now.
Cotyledon leaves are almost fully yellow and dead. Also, true leaves getting lighter.
Does that mean it's not getting enough nutes?
How can I get this plant moving? It started off really well..

Noob grower - plant need extra support?I've got a plant 9 weeks into veg that sags noticeably when the leaves are wet. Is this unusual or will the branches thicken enough to be able to support rain soaked clusters of sticky-icky happiness? Is there anything I can do to encourage thicker branches?

What i do with her?Ola growmies. O que fazer com esta Royal Gorilla? Teve um inicio de vida lento em relação às outras, as primeiras duas folhas ficaram coladas durante algum tempo. Pensei que com o tempo ela ia desenvolver-se normalmente mas tem 34 dias e tem este aspeto com alguns pelos a nascer.
