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?

I watered today with my sprayer & one of my plants fell over, is this damping off or am I supposed to prop it up somehow? The other ones are fine.

10 days till harvest, branches leaning / growing sideways
I have about 7-10 days before harvest and my branches are going sideways! Should I provide supports for the branches? Any advise would be appreciated as I know the final days are when the buds fatten up the most and I wanna maximize yield Last photo is the same plant 3 days prior

Bad plant from bad seed? Keep or throw?
So one of my girls germinated with only one leaf and is growing at a much slower pace compared to her sister (they germinated in soil within 24hrs from each other) I think it was a bad seed, is it worth keeping her? I've planted another now just in case 🤷🏽

How long until she dies?
How long until a seedling dies? This autoflower bent outside and I’m hoping she will survive. She hasn’t turned brown yet. First pic is damage. 2nd pic is right after. Third pic is today. It’s been about 24 hours and she’s still green... a little yellow though.

Raspberry Kush auto starting to tilt/lay over, 4 days above soil? Bottom pot in pic
My first auto grow and about 5 days in the one plant is starting to tip to one side. If this a light issue? Is it stretching to much? Using a TS1000 at 100% from 24 inches away. It was fine up until this morning then notice it was tilting to one side. 76f 50rh.

My second plant is really a midget compared to the other one. Should i be worried? Hello! Growing this Wedding Cake Auto for 10 days, and it's 2 times
Same environment for both plants. Spaces between branches are super narrow. The stem is weaker than the other plant and leaves are curling down. Had a Ph issue earlier. Now giving her only Ph - 6.5 water. Will she bounce back? How can i help my plant? Thank you for your answers!

Over water? Damping? Heat? Alive? Dead?

Main Stem Split On Two Strains In Same Environment
Main stock split for no apparent reason?? anyone had this happen with minimal to no stress on the side branches?? Wondering if I topped too low or should have tried to leave more stem from the last node. Growing hard and she just splits, I have seen this bending branches...😀👍🙏
