buds are too heavy for the plants. i've kept a fan on them almost their whole life but somehow they aren't strengthening themselves up enough to handle the weight of the budskis.

what do i do break out some really long shishkabobs and bread ties???

I use string and tie them and tie the other side to a higher place to hold them up.

Yes. Do it. Big Bud and several other strains require it when buds are almost fully developed. By whatever means . . . . .. If 2 weeks or more left consider silica. A little late but next time with heavy budders think silica.

tomato cages. trellis netting.

Protekt silica will make a noticeable difference in stem strength. I say protekt because its the most concentrated silica product youll find at your "grow" shop.
