Bended Stem

Yeah you kinda hardened it (the Stem) with your LST... Looking fine just a bit funky now.

Stem is fine. But may consider a lighter substrate to grow in for bigger plants.

You did a great job on the original bend but then you allowed the plant to grow vertically again so you really didn’t gain anything. Think about growing the stem horizontally instead of vertically so that all the under buds are now top colas. Grow the stems horizontally out like a fan. Now every single bud site has direct sunlight. Check out the mainline technique. You don’t have to “bend” as much. Check out some of my grow’s. I scrogged (Grew horizontally ) my purple push pops and it came out nice. Best of luck with your grow.

Hey growmie, as far as I understand, the point of lst when you bend the main stem is to spread the nodes horizontally as your plant stretches to get more light, in your particular case you just shifted all of the nodes to the side but they are still growing vertically.

Hello friend. The stem will be okay 👍. Cannabis is strong.
