Bending
The8thChevronanswered grow question 4 years ago
Just rotate it 180° every couple of days. One side might just be getting more light because of early morning/afternoon shadows, causing the bend. If it starts slumping over due to it's own weight just put a stake in the soil and tie it loosely to the plat for support. Anything non-reactive can be a stake, you dont need to go spending money. A sturdy plastic straw would probably provide enough support until the stem gets stronger.

Hello.. Hope u are well.. This is not a problem.. U can either leave it to continue to grow how she is or u can use a peice of garden tie to pull her across to a more central position.. I personally dont use stakes as u risk damaging her roots.. They both look lovely and healthy tho tbh.. 👍🍀

Will this tape repair a broken stem?Should I re-wrap this broken stem? Bent with too much pressure and there was a snap, though not completely severed. I applied two or three layers of duct tape, not sure if the constant pull of ties will allow it to heal and repair. When should I take the tape off?

Stem Damage in High Winds/Tropical StormsI live in Thailand, it's very hot a the moment so we are prone to tropical storms. When this happens it's very windy.
I am concerned this will cause damage to the stem of the plant/s. Is it advisable to use a stake to support the plant stem, or will the plant just deal with it?

Recovery after broken stemAccidentally broke main steam right before juicy top with some pre-flowers (white hairs). Photos were taken 24 hours after accident. I did the right thing with fixing it with tape? Or it will not produce flowers now and was it better to cut it out completely?
