Grow QuestionsWeak stems in one of my plants

Weak stems in one of my plants

Tubington9started grow question 4 years ago

My one plant is starting to have support issues with a couple stems, when I felt the stems they seem soft/rubbery. I’m just curious if this is the sign of some sort of deficiency. Any help is greatly appreciated. I have installed a ScrOG to help support the stems

It’s just that sativa stretch. The scrog net will fix your problem. The stems look big and healthy it’s just they are so long that they can’t support the weight and it will get worse as they grow fatter. Just keep that net down low and maybe add another one up towards the top if you have one available. Happy Growing!!!

Over watering? Will she recover?When I lifted this GSC auto from the tent to LST she simply fell over. Prior to that I thought she looked very healthy. Since then her leaves have all flopped down. I'm pretty sure I've been over watering. She's now being supported. Will she recover? see before and after pics

First time coco grower Hello friends, i have a problem with my runoffph in my coco. Last time that I checked it was at 5.6 but I feeded at 6.3. Today I wanted to arrange that by feeding at 6.5 but the runoff is still at 5.6, I don’t understand what I’m doing wrong. My plants are not growing anymore.SOS

Bad plant from bad seed? Keep or throw?So one of my girls germinated with only one leaf and is growing at a much slower pace compared to her sister (they germinated in soil within 24hrs from each other) I think it was a bad seed, is it worth keeping her? I've planted another now just in case 🤷🏽

Transplanting I just transplanted yesterday into 5gallon pots, do they look ok ? I dropped Runtz onto itself. The others seemed okay even though soil went everywhere. Not sure what to do to make sure all the roots & plant are healthy still. Any suggestions?

Why is week-old seedling starting to fall over?Why is the seedling in the foreground falling over? Is it from stretching? I planted it on January 28, and moved it to the tent a couple of days ago. It was doing fine until yesterday. (I've removed it from the tent and put it back under the CF bulbs in the bathroom.)

Day 37 - Main Stem Split in Half on Manifolded Plant: Is the Plant Salvageable?The stem on one of my manifolded plants has split in half at the base. I tried to salvage the stem by using garden tie knot with a zip tie to bring the halves back together. Is this going to kill the plant or is this plant salvageable? Thank you for your advice.
