A stem problem

I had plant a marijuana seeds 100 precent female for outdoor growing
after i finish the gremination i put my plant out side at the sun
everything seems to be ok but then i found out that the stem is fell down i put a stick that the stem would have a support but it dint help
it happend to me more than 3 times
what shoul i do?
Maybe it was a mistake to put the plant outside so soon ? Maybe the soil is not good enoughe?(which soil is recomended?i use garden soil)

use a straw, cut it in the middle and try to place the seedling in it.

this could also be too much/too little water. in my 1st grow i killed like 5 seedling like that haha. you learn with time man.

^^^ ya do that and quit spamming it in 5 different threads ;-D haha naa ur cool bro i like you

dude, we've all been there haha. you get all stressed when seedling do that and you're like "omg! help! what should i do?!" and all that.

i remember i was this stressed about seedling.

can you tell me if its ok to put full soil inside the planter (i was told a lot of times that it better to put half soil is it true?what do you think is better i have a lot to learn now so ill be glad if you will answer to me.. i have strongs winds so maybe for the start i put the plant at home with flurecentand after a 3 weeks ill put it outside?
thanx have a great day!

hmm, i couldn't really understand the question.

as for vegging indoor and taking em out.. i guess it'll be fine, but we're at august 1st man, depending on where you live you might not have enough time for plants to fully bloom.

i, for say, don't have this problem because we don't get rains here until at least november so plants will have enough time to finish their flowering cycle.

good luck.

Seedlings need intense light when germinating to avoid "stretching", which is when the stem extends unnaturally, trying to reach adequate light. If you're starting them inside, and using florescent light, be sure the soil surface is only 2-4 inches from the lights. This will prevent stretching. Be sure to adjust the lights at least daily to keep the plant from touching, and being burned by the bulb.

Too much water will often cause "stem rot" in seedlings which will also cause the stem to collapse.

Hope this helps!


A pic of my seedlings from 2010, about a week after sprouting. I kept two large CFLs within 6" of them until I transplanted them into one gallon pots.(Link to my 2010 grow, below.)
