Stem not growing as fast as the branch
contrapunk
started grow question 5y ago
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?

Wow, that looks like a weightlifter. Don't worry - I'm sure the stem will follow... soon it'll look like a proper trunk.

As your mainlines get more weight/size the stock will thicken.

Small plant thin stems ?
Growing autoflowers in greenhouse in Euro climate. I’m finding that my plants end up with thin stems but of average height. Yields are small but only using 7gallon pots with water only. Any ideas on why that is ?

Mold on stem (outdoor)
Hello guys! One plant of a friends outdoor grow is looking not so good. On two stems there are spaces without bark, and on one spot is even some mold. Almost looks like someone removed it with a knife. Any diagnosis, tips or other help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot!

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 :(

I don't know if it was water or week lighting.
Can I still save the top 2? Leaves are green, not sure if it was water or my late tlights. They are aerated now, SF-1000 is at 70% and approximately 18" away. They were originally under a LED GE Seedling Grow Light.

What Should I do?
I have fixed the one on the bottom left with a toothpick. This photo is from yesterday and plants growing small leaves now. I foliar sprayed them and pour a tiny bit of water onto them from the leftover but now I am worried I overwatered them the top of the soil wasnt even dry.

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?
