    I am having this same "problem" . What I'm doing is placing some bamboo sticks around the cennter and then using soft ties i attach a stem to the stick. Then just daisy chain to another branch and so on. I'm also using a trellis net cut just a bit larger than the diameter and plop it right on the top and arrange your flowers. boom done.

        I've used fishing line and fishing hooks. Just hook the bud rather than tie anything to it.
        I like big buds and I can not lie.

              These are what those plant yo-yos look like: Plant yo-yos, also called Plant supports


              This is what they looked like when we used them:

              A 'before and after' example of yo-yos in action!


              They're definitely not perfect, but they were helpful!

                Thanks DW2, yea a removable locking pin seems like a design flaw too. Do they at least stay locked if you manage not to drop/lose the locking plug?

                I have the yellow double hooks ones and I'd say about 1 in 3 doesn't lock very effectively. The 'strings' are spring mounted so if they don't lock in position properly, they end up yanking at the branches you're trying to support as they recoil.

                Yes they stay locked very well, I have learned not to push them too tight because they can require two (or more) hands to un-lock them (that is when I usually loose the plug!).

                I've seen them online and local but sometimes the availability changes. I would also check Ebay if you can't find them on Amazon!

                      You should see the bigger ones. I do not know what happened but this plant EXPLODED with growth!. The canopy fills my Gorilla tent now 50% of tent height and 100% with! THE SMALL TENT IS PACKED! I wonder if its that bag of Fukushima soil I found washed up on the beach in San Diego. LOL

                        Looks like you're gonna have a great harvest and an even better time after that!
                        A few bales of weed showed up along our coastline after some big storms out in the north Pacific.....wonder if those folks smoked any of that weed....who knows where it came from...maybe same place as you got your soil? ;~)
                        Didn't get to try any of that "lost coast" weed myself....but thats why we grow our own right? Just one of the benefits is you know where it came from and how it was grown!

                          If you put something everyone knows the size of in your big bud pics. It would be easier for everyone to tell how big the buds are. Very nice looking bud though.
