Split stem
BrannabisTHCstarted grow question 3 years ago
Will she be okay?
I used some cable ties to help support her a bit and to stop it from splitting down more

Yes she will survive. Provide extra support to help hold together better. Leave the zip tie on her as well.

The cable tie will strangle your plant as it gets older because it has no "give".
Remove it after supporting the branches with stakes and use soft/elasticized ties for the stakes.
Old stockings works well.

I would recommend creating side supports instead or supports from above like a yoyo hanger.
Using the cable tie will help but will also strangle her as the stem gets bigger which will restrict the flow of nutrients to the buds.

I ovawatad, and possibly ova nuted my plants which led to all sorts of deficiencies (cal/mag/iron). The 24/7 light cycle didn't help. I've reduced the cycle to 18/6 and waited enough to start watering again which my plants appreciated.thinking of using cal sulfur sup: thoughts?Week 7

I noticed some leaves and stems getting red/purple (see latest photo Week #10) so I'm a bit afraid of Phosphorous deficiency but otherwise the plant look healthy so not sure.
Don't want to use redundant fertilizers as I would expect her to finish soon - ideas would be welcomed!Week 10
