My plant is leaning, lol.

If I tie a string and attach it to something to hold it upright, will it hurt it?

Stick a stick in there to prop it up. But, i wouldn't worry about it.

Start shaking it everyday to strengthen it up. simulate a small wind storm! I had one leaning like that and I decided i would shake the main stem and some side branches every few days for a while and noticed the stems got stronger. thing is, i never staked my plant so it still leaned a bit but looked and felt stronger

Yes you can tie it up. Please dont shake your plant, stroke it lovingly and sing to it 😍.

There, got it tied up for now, I will start using the stick method from now on though. Thanks guys

yes! this is an old trick. grab the stem and shake it hard once or twice a day. putting a fan on it helps too. some strains fall over more than others so just propping her up with a stick is just fine. you're looking good!

Is your plant leaning towards the light? If so I would turn the plant 180 degrees and it should lean back.

yes! rotate your plant once a day or so.

You can use a string to hold it up. But if you want to rotate the pot (so it gets even light exposure) you're better off using a bamboo post or stake of some sort. Once the top cola gets too heavy for the stem, it will snap; so make sure you take care of the issue!

yup will do. Coming up on 4 weeks flowering, 5 weeks since the 13th when I started the 12/12 cycle. Noticed since I received the 400 watt light and switching from cfls the other day, the top cola has gained mass, if that makes sense and I can only imagine flowering for another 4-5 weeks it'll be heavier and thicker with this light.

She's got that Gangster lean to her, Just use a Bamboo stick and prop her back up

If your plants are in flower then your roots have filled your pot. Dont stab the shit out of your root ball and start fucking with a plant half way through. Next time if u want to use bamboo polls do it when you transplant into your final pot. Just tie it up.

no it wont hurt it.
or you could turn it around ...it will grow towards light ....simply turn it opposite for awhile and it should straighten out

very nice plant btw

I keep a fan on mine as well. It does help to grow stronger branches and stronger plant all together.
