Stem Damage in High Winds/Tropical Storms

NobbyClarke
NobbyClarkestarted grow question a year ago
I live in Thailand, it's very hot a the moment so we are prone to tropical storms. When this happens it's very windy. I am concerned this will cause damage to the stem of the plant/s. Is it advisable to use a stake to support the plant stem, or will the plant just deal with it?

You should stake ot. In future you may want to top it, and get the plant to stay lower to the ground with more branches in a bush structure.

Be careful restricting the plant can cause a break at the contact point your almost better off sticking her in a bushy area were the sourrounding vegetation can help shelter her from wind. She is lanky though so a strong storm could break her over especially if she stands alone and when she starts gettin top heavy with bud. Look around your natural surroundings how do the local plants do it

Help it out with a rod/stake. And add some silica nutrients to fatten the stem cause it looks really weak. I recommend rhino skin by advanced nutrients. You can also try tieing it down so it gets less wind. Good luck with ghe rest of your grow
