I would keep turning the plants so that the fan is blowing in a direction where the wind is keeping the plant from falling over and just rotate everyday and eventually it will get bigger or at least that's what I do

ya as long as you have the stems always shaking slightly they'll develop great thick stems. I germinated two seeds about 6 days ago, planted them in my autopot setup, they popped up in 2 days, and ive had them under my fan for 4 days now, the stems are very strong already, ill see if i can get a pic

Click to expand...

you can probably put nuts around the stem to hold it straight i use a like a chop stick or u could use a pencil or straw etc
