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.

Broke my baby plant
So today was I suppose classic newbie messing with the plant too much. I thought I could sink the stem into the coco a little so that it has more support but ended up breaking the stem. I rescued with a mini wooden spoon, some wire and sellotape. Any advice welcome.

Snapped Plant
One of my little guys was kinda snapped/snapped and peeled down a bit but not a full break in the stem. I created a little splint and taped it up and it’s kinda looked the same all day. Do you think it will survive or it a break of that kind at this size the end of it? 😢

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!

Have I just killed my plant??
Oh no!! I think I've snapped the main stem! Can't see a cut or break in the stem, but I definitely heard it snap. I was trying to train the main stem to same height as the rest of the canopy. Autoflower, 2 weeks into flower. Have I fucked it??

Could these be automatics?
I was trying for the first time the 12-12 form seed growing method and these are supose to be “fast cookies” but I assumed they were just fem But as i am following the state as close as i can and daily “studying in here a couple of hours” i think the problem could be genetic

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 ?

Stems on fan leaves weak
The stems on those big leaves seem kind of weak and in general as the grow out they seem to be drooping a bit like they can’t support the weight well. Does this look like a problem and if so any thoughts? I do have a couple of fans in the tent providing some circulation.

Defoliate?
Just repotted my baby after learning she may have too much nitrogen. Should I trim all the damaged leaves or should I wait until the plant gets stronger? Also, when will the stem become thicker? Is there something I can do?

Main stem girth
My question is regarding the main vertical branch, is it normal for it to be so thin at this point? It's not leaning to bad.

Will this tape repair a broken stem?
Should I re-wrap this broken stem? Bent with too much pressure and there was a snap, though not completely severed. I applied two or three layers of duct tape, not sure if the constant pull of ties will allow it to heal and repair. When should I take the tape off?
