Thin base of the stem
The_garden_of_Vixenstarted grow question 8 months ago
Hello. Do I need to dig my plant deeper to the ground? If yes up to what leaf ? Looks like base of the stem still thinner than the middle. I’ve already dig it about 2.5 inch a week ago

No, your plant is fine as it is. You can dtrengthen your stem with silicate. I personally use rhino skin by advanced Nutrients and I've seen it make a difference.
Good luck with the rest of your grow.

Wind is making stems stronger outside, inside growers replicate it with oscillating fans.

It’s fine as is. It’s normal for it to be a little thicker further up from the base of the plant

No hace falta que entierres más tu planta. Si está en exterior ubica tu maseta en un lugar donde le dé mayor cantidad de horas de luz solar. Si está en interior coloca tu luz en un fotoperiodo de 18/6 18hs de luz y 6 de oscuridad. Si te preocupa tu tallo estirado puedes poner un tutor o palo al costado de tu planta y atarla suave para que se mantenga en pie. Su planta se estiro por falta de luz. Igualmente pienso que en 1 semana o 2 el tallo va a ponerse más fuerte.

Broken branchesRipley’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?

Seedling falling overIf my seedling looks too heavy…like it’s about to fall over, should I brace it with a tooth pick or just let it be? Did I over water it?
I ended up just pushing some of the top soil up against the stem to brace it for now. Hopefully this will strengthen soon

Recovery after broken stemAccidentally broke main steam right before juicy top with some pre-flowers (white hairs). Photos were taken 24 hours after accident. I did the right thing with fixing it with tape? Or it will not produce flowers now and was it better to cut it out completely?

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.

Stem Damage in High Winds/Tropical StormsI 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?
