| Stem question?
Okay, So this is my 1st grow, I believe I am on my way to greatness. My favorite plant has been leafing and growing well, but as of last night it the top has been sagging to about 10 O'clock. I spiked it overnight and it is still leaning this morning. My question is, does this always happen, will it straighten out? and are there any negative effects for spiking a plant (giant toothpicks and hemp rope loosely tied) for say a week?

what's going on with the grow? Heavy rain? Too dry? Insect infestation? Not enough info to form an opinion (and in my case, being quick to jump to conclusions, that's saying a lot)

Giant toothpicks? I agree with OldSkool, not enough info, but I am going to go out on a limb here -- you are growing indoors and your plant is stretching for light, so much so that the stem is too thin to hold the top up. Just a guess with hardly anything to go on, post some more details and pics. And thanks to Hempress the Spamkiller!

| what, do you give advice when you are not qualified to? or do you just agree with the sentiment?

| everyone gets corrected once and awhile, I just think that people who havn't a clue should stick to asking Q's & not guess and talk shit! I couldnt care less about how many posts somebody has, that means shit to me. its all in what you say and how you say it! No?

Yes. I guess I'm still too new (a total noob actually). I just filter the BS. and keep on. I can see where if you see enough of it you'd get tired of calling bullshit when you see it.  Quote:
