well if your just wanting to make the plant grow straight then I suppose it will work if you keep re-tying the top to the stake but it will probabbly continue trying to grow crooked.why would i think of it if there was no point in doing it?
I just dont see what the point in trying to get it to grow straight is. I suppose it will have less stress on the stalk of the plant later but thats all I can think of....
i think it will help encourage side branch growth. (??) if i let it go it will just hook up and try to grow alongside the pot. on only one side though. if i stake the main stalk straight down then the side branches will have to hook upwards surrounding the whole pot.

because 6 pages ago they were over watered and almost died. the root mass is at the bottom so when i water it floods the roots. i don't want to water until the roots have filled the whole pot. i may water them just a little this evening. just the upper third or so.
