I didn't know it until moving to flower tent.. I staked it. Now will silica blast work still or too late? Never had this before. I went and used freebie MG organic as low on funds this time or farthest from fan. Maybe thats it..only one plant out of 5.

I use organicare silica blast with all feedings I give them 5 ml per gal in solution with cal mag and power flower for bloom.
I use it the same way with power plant, for veg good stuff should help through the whole bloom process.

Just stake it up and put some fans on it and lots of light, the branches will recover once its been under 12/12 for a few days.

Ditto on Majek's advice...I thought I'd "help" my plant by rotating her in my tent during flowering so light could get all around her. I didn't realize that the tent itself was propping a lot of her up, so when I turned the pot several of her good stalks with nice colas flopped over. I was horrified! I propped them up again by tucking their fan leaves into the crooks of other stalks and they all held each other up just fine. In a day or two they didn't need supporting anymore.

To avoid this in future use a s
mall cage with 6" holes for support attached around the pot(in a circle), this way you can train them early and 'stop the flop' . No need to use reo the soft wire will do.

I am going to go out on a limb here and guess your growing og kush? notorious for being skinny limbed .One of my gurls won't make it past 3 weeks of bud without staking.keeping your lights as close as possible will help keep them from stretching to bad as well.

Amsterdam Indica..never happened with the strain before.. Heck never had weakness issues before at all. Now Dutch Treat is a haphazard lady. Grows crazy side limbs..
