Yea, I don't think you'll have any issues with that. If you catch it right away, you can put tape around it for a few days to help it heal.

Split Stalk Down Center
Stalk split down the center due to stressing it too hard too fast. I have it secured in place but it's about 3 weeks into flowed and I'm worried about its effect as well as if it can heal.

LST during flowering?

Accidentally bent/squished the stem on Pheno #3, is it possible it can bounce back?
I was LST'ing the Purple Haze Pheno #3, I accidentally got a bend in the stem and it could have snapped or partially torn, I attached some photos hope these help. It was by accident, I have nerve damage and arthritis so I can't keep my hands still that much especially standing.

I did an LST last time, but I'm not sure I did it right. Can you please tell me, given that the lateral branches are already very active, but the trun
should I do an LST in a 4-5 days? And maybe some tips. Last time I anchored the plant from the bottom so that the roots wouldn't come out of the ground from below and the stem wouldn't bend so much, and then pulled the stem over the top, is this correct?

How do you measure your plants correctly?
When measuring the height of a plant do you measure from soil to top of canopy or is it the length of the main stem? MIne are trained sideways.😎

FEMALE OR HERMAPHRODITE?

Have I ruined it?
Is this plant saveable? I’ve completely snapped the main stem while doing LST. I’ve put a small stake in the stem to hold it together and taped in up. Is she likely to recover or should I just start again?

She's getting too tall!
2x2x4 tent, flipped to 12/12 A week ago, and removed my LST plant ties at the same time to make watering easier. She's getting tall though, and now I'm thinking of putting the ties back on. Will that even help? Should I try something else? the pics are about 1 week apart

Removing "suckers" on autoflowers
I have these smaller growths on the lower part of my plant. They haven't really stretched out at all. I read that these smaller growths can suck available energy for the other buds. Can I cut these or just leave them and forget about them?

Why do my autos take longer than everyone else with same strain
If you live in a different part of the states or heavy LST make your autos take longer to grow. I see all these diaries that at 7-8 week there’s is not only way smaller ( I only have the diaries going now) and they are finished way sooner than when I have grown them. Thank you
