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?

Advice for beginners
Ok too cool thank you very much :) Unfortunately I had to launch my autoflowering session in 5.5L and 6L pots because I have not yet received the 10L Air pots. Good culture and nice Growdiaries page :)

SNAPPED MAIN STEM HALF WAY DURING WEEK 5 (still in Veg)
During LST I snapped the main stem of one of my Pineapple Express Autos. It very easily snapped almost completely off but it still has a few fibres left. I panicked &used duct tape and some sticks to keep it supported. Has anyone done this before? Is it successful? Yields effect?

LST : now or later ?
Hi guys ! I'd like to try LST on these sisters. Just wondering, looking at the latest photos do you think they're tall enough ? Or should I wait a bit more ? Also in which direction should I tie them down to maximize yield ? Thank you in advance ! 🍃☀️

Early LST defoliation
Hi guys, is it ok to defoliate some leafs while doing LST at the early stage of growing to get more light for the buds? Clones, day 10 after transplanting.

4 or 5 Plants - Setup: 80×80×180 Pods: 11L (25×25×26)
As you can see in the picture, we have 5 plants right now. We thought about removing one, and use scrog for the other. Do you have a recommendation for this case? Other ideas are also very welcome :) ✌️

Flower Stretch and Mainlining
Flower Stretch Question When I flip to flower, she will stretch and about double in size. Does this include all the bare growth I have cleared off during toppings? ie, if the stalk at the bottom is 12" from the bottom to the start of the last topping, does that 12" count in?

Low-Stress Training, Pre-flower Concerns
When low-stress training, is it better to make sure the pistils of preflowering stage are covered by leaves or are they ok to be exposed to light? I thought they may be to vulnerable for full light exposure (150w FLS led, Royal Dwarf Auto, pre-flower stage)
