The main stem of my young self-flowering plant (9d) broke because of the wind
Ratpi_2i
started grow question 3y ago
The main stem of my young self-flowering plant (9d) broke because of the wind but did not cut, I put it back from the substrate to the cotyledon, but it grows much less quickly, despite this, it remains green, will it recover? If so, in how long?

MAIN STEM BROKEN
Broke my stem doing LST last week Tried to put it back together but when I came back to see them yesterday the ridge was even bigger. Will they survive eventually? I put some rocks under the main branches to support them. Plant seems to be doing fine.

Stem thickness
I am noticing that my stem is often too thin when compared to other plants. What this could be an indication of? Could it be that I am slightly under watering the soil by giving about 0.5 L of water each two days after 35 days of veg?

How to fix leggy plants?
Hello all! I received 4 plants that were about 2-3 ft tall and top heavy. They are growing denser now, and I started topping them off to maintain the height. Currently they are in 3 gallon fabric pots. I supported the skinny bases with wood stakes and ties, but they grew mold :(

The Two mainline branch seems to have more girth than the main stem. Any reason why the stem isn’t growing at the same rate?

Are they on time?
Hi there! What do you think about my plants? It's my first grow and I have no idea if they are doing good or are too slow to be at the end of the fourth week. Does it mean starting from tomorrow they are already in flowering time? Thanks! Cheers

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.
