Healthy buds turning down from weight,,

The trouble is its the last 5 inches of the branch, so even if I tie her up the weight of the bud, is still pulling her down...


Again sorry for the sideways pics. I don't know how to rotate them, But anyway you can see how the weight at the end is just following Newtons law of physics. They still have about 30 more days to go,, Here is one of the other Colas on her,,

You really use that stuff!!! wow...

sounds like a good problem to have hope i run into it in a couple weeks

instead of tying them up how about propping them up from below...

I use stakes from home depot. The plastic ones not the shitty wood ones.

you should actually read what it it does for a plant. not what possible harm it can do to your skin or anything not related to its use. have you read ph up and down? it works. i pull 40+oz every three weeks from 12 plants without any form of support or strings, and longer branches on a couple of my strains than what you are dealing with.

i dont get it. i reread that post and what is so bad? it may irritate your skin? may cause abdominal discomfort? you really should learn about plants and take a look at other items used in horticulture that actually are bad for you. a closed mind should come with a closed mouth.

Thanks man, great idea... I'll just use pipe cleaners to tie them off with, the soil is hard do to all the roots, but I'll give it a try... Next time when I grow a tree I'll put stakes in first... Never thought I would need them...

i can understand the issue now, you just dont understand what you read. i was just offering solid, proven advice for you. i said i get 40+oz every three weeks from 12 plants. thats about 3.5oz average per plant, every three weeks. i have had over 75 harvests with this and larger. just trying to help.
