Hey Guys,
Im at week 6 veg with my girls today- 4 plants that have just blown up on me!

While preparing them for my flower chamber, 3 of them slumped and eventually they fell. While picking them up i broke a couple of branches and stressed them. Trying to get them to stand up straight.......failed. they wouldnt because i cut the holes too loose. I used a new top and cut the holes tighter. But then i had to cut apart the roots which im sure stressed um more.

this was also the first time i have fimmed and it has made the tops very heavy! SO i tied a few limbs up with dental floss and because i just started flowering and didnt wanna fully nute um, i gave um a bit of Thrive alive and root 66 from technaflora. Im thinking theyll staighten up after a day or two and ill be able to flower away.

Whaddya think? will i always have to tie um up or do you think there just stressed and will straighten back up soon.

I guess you could keep using stakes and twine to hold your plant up for now, until it can stand on its own again. Even if it won't work all too well, its still worth a shot! no sense in wasting a good plant :)

Best of luck.
 
im worried. But they should recover right? I hope i dont have to keep stringin um up!

anybody else stress the crap outta there babys only to see um bounce right back?
 
They do look rather healthy to me, other than the droopiness.
I think they will spring back to life. Just give it a shot!

Also, I found some stuff on another site:

An often-occuring mould affecting cannabis is pythium. This mould causes root-rot, and rot in the lowest part of the stem. It appears most in young cannabis plants, and in cuttings. Larger, healthy plants are less sensitive to pythium. Plants get 'falling-over disease' with a serious pythium attack. We don't have to explain what that means Pythium is recognizable by the bark at the base of the stem turning brown. In the beginning, the 'brown attack' is easily removable. Later, the rotting process eats deeper into the base of the plant. Pythium is a fungus which flourishes best in wet and humid environments. Pythium spores spread only through water. Two kinds of spores are formed, Swarming ones and stable ones.

Now, I know that seems kinda extreme, but it may be worth a look, just in case! It seems, assuming that the above mentioned is the problem, that it can be cured if caught early!

Good luck.
