Just depends on where you are at in the plants life cycle. Are you veggibg? Flower? Size of pot?

answered grow question 4y ago
I would include a mix of silica when you feed. I use bloom city and I'm getting stupid thick stems in soil. It's a additive found in the earth's crust and temps build stronger cell walls and helps deter pests.

I found out, my DWC system wasn't stable. This caused to much difference in temp/EC and PH. Now I"m sure I found the solution but, do you think I need to start over? 2 look very very bad. See pictures. I made 1 picture of each plant in te last serie. See the difference.

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?

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.

Forced supercrop due to lack of water
Hello mates, one of my plants bent its branches due to lack of water (I wasn't at home for a few days), and three of them has broken, even partially RIPPED. I put a tape so it can recover from the damage. Should I worry about this? She looks fine after a day (straighten up).

Accidental stem bend
I accidentally cause a break in one of the cola's stems. Just wondering if folk with experience could say if this is likely to be a problem and if so how much of a problem? Was thinking I could put some Rhizotonic dilution in a spray bottle to help her recover?

My seedling just fell over
All of the sudden a healthy looking seedling decided to fall/bend over, it does have the thinnest stem of them all. Why is this happening and how can I prevent it with my other seedlings? Outside temperature is 24⁰ and I water them twice a day with pH-balanced water

Ripley’s OG auto flower - broke two branches almost completely off the stalk adjusting tie downs and immediately duct taped them back together. In week 5 just starting to flower. What are the chances these branches mend back together and continue to grow?

Stem Split X2! YIKES!
I have two partially split stems. It looks to me like the plant is already healing itself, but I've never encountered this before so I'm not sure if I should be supporting the split area, or just letting her be? I don't want it to get worse...
