Could be that the buds developing are too jeavy for the branches, could be the start of a calcium deficiency that can cause weak stems. Try some calmag and supporting the buds before the stems break.

Slow growth yellow leaf edges what to do?Plant growing slowly (but still growing) with weak growth tips and yellow edges on leaves with interveinal chlorosis. Looks like overwatering / magnesium deficiency to me. I use a weighing scale to know when to water, but started the plant in 25L pot so this might have caused it.Leaves. Veins - yellow between

Why has my Stem outer wall burst?It seems like my girls stem has burst out of it's outer layer, is this something to be worried about?

Leaning Plant /Could really do with some advice on the lean if anyone has any? Should I dig her up very carefully before her root mass gets too big and try to straighten her out? Should I put a little gardening stick in there and tie the stem to it to support her?

Tall seedlingsI started with lamp on 80cm, on day 3-4-5, so the stems were growing very tall.
I decided to rapidly hang the lamp much closer (40cm on day 6-7). They start "buffing up" now, but 2 of 3 really fell down so i had to start supporting them.
Hopefully I made the right choice?Week 1

Weak stems in one of my plantsMy 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 stemsPlant. Stem - Weak
