Base Stem Size

Hey my friends, I want to get a thread started that is dedicated to showing off the size of the base stem of your plant. I find this part of the plant particularly interesting because I feel that the size of the stem will determine the pace at which your plant is supplied with nutes(kind of like internet bandwidth!) You have small piping and you have decreased water flow. So size does matter!(no pun intended) I know that it can range anywhere from 1/8" to baby arms! And the way these thick stems are achieved I'm guessing is through the size of the pot(excluding in ground outdoor), the training techniques used, lighting, and medium type. And of course pics of your outdoor sequoia big trees are also welcome! So drop a picture of your thickest stem and a little about its growing conditions. Thanks guys!

Here's my stem. Lst, topped at 3rd node. FF Coco loco, FF Big Bloom and Tiger Bloom nutes, 3 gallon pot, 236w cfl.
