More info... Why do you think they are weak? if you are just referring to stem strength so as to hold up the buds you will grow... Get a good oscilating fan to blow across the plants will strengthen the stems from the movment. Super cropping is a great way to increase yield and where you super crop you will grow a nice strong knuckle to hold up those fat buds......

Stakes and wire cages. Indoor plants don't get very strong in the frame as there is no need, no wind no storms etc.

My fault I didn't give any info as to what I was meaning. This is my 2nd grow and with the first few plants I learned how to make the stem strong and my yeilds big but what about the potency of the smoke. I know alot has to do with the strain but how can I make sure to get the full potency. I may have picked early but this girl was in like 45days I just said screw it lol

Well sounds like you harvested too quick which would impact potency.

Well if you want a more potent smoke don't harvest early.

Let the plant get to maturity, buy a jewelers loupe or microscope and monitor the trichomes (and plant as a whole) to establish the optimum harvest time.
