one of my stems is slightly bent is this a problem and what causes it. It was only planted half way in a 24oz soho cup so i just covered it with some more fox farms ocean forest to straighten it out i hope i didnt hurt it by doing this

New dad, huh? You did not hurt it. It will be fine. Try not to over-baby it. Marijuana is a tough plant. Good luck.

Its probably stretching towards the light....add more soil (like you did) to reinforce the stem and lower the lights

+1 Doogleef, Not bad to look at it for hours on end, and check it every few hours every day, but don't baby it too much, i've actually got one with a bent stem right now. started in early January, survived through 3 nights of getting below freezing, and i decided to bring it indoors and it's going crazy with the right conditions. the stem hooks hard at almost 40 - 50 degrees, i've had this before on other plants, doesn't hurt growth, goodluck!

lol I have a 5 day old baby that has angled over 45 degrees? Never seen this before. True leafs are doing ok, stem looks fine just bent.
