my girl is tied down! i hope she lives through the hurricane PIXX.

6 4 foot stakes and rope are going to be her support through Irene... a tarp will be put over the ground surrounding her so the roots stay dry.. all i can do is pray to the weed gods

Good luck!!!!!!

thanks!
bro

The only problem and it's a big one is the winds really howls leaf matter shreds. The stem or stalk is the strongest part of the plant. Hopefully winds die down so you don't have to face the horror.

I think you should have taken all the branches and tried to tie them to the main stalk then covered everything with a tarp and surrounded it by stakes so that it cant s hift too far in any direction.

oh , and good luck .. your plant looks awesome.

thanks she is so ill iv never seen as big of a plant in my day

I would drive a metel rebard stake into the ground. Then tie or shrink wrape the plant up like an x-mass tree comes. Then tie the plant up to the stake very good with rope or shrink wrape. Pound the stake in a few feet. The shrink wrape would protect the plant well. Metel stake so it cannot break. You can shrink wrape a plant to a thin bean pole if done right. Just like x-mass trees comes.

If in pots I would move to best cover. Lay them down on the side. Trillis netting them to the gound.

Been thinking about this. And this is what I would do. Granted I never been in a storm like this. But I think this would be my plan. Not as easy with a plant as big as your though.

so my ropes held up!! she lives!

lucky! wish I could say the same All mine were crushed by my neighbors car tent airplane.
