About BRANCH

[genghishan]

hello everyone

Iam in veg in 5 week. and I built scrog net. ı have so many branches(main colas) but little and new ones are very soft.
ı cant train branches because they are very soft and it cant stand they cant stand upright.

How do the branches thicken and strenght?

ps: I use canna professional soil in a 7 gallon pot. plants has a led light.and as nutrients I have advanced nutrients sensi coco grow A-B and , biobizz starter pack.but ı just use advance nutrients.

I use potassium silicate as an attitive. I find it really beefs up the strength of you plants

I use sand for the silica and trace minerals, but I set in the dust bowl,,, and have plenty of it.

And a very gentle breeze build plant muscle

A stem crush can help them get stronger, but that's probably more for the veg stage. I use string hung from the top of the tent with a soft wire to hold them vertical. Bamboo stakes or dowels also do the trick and are easier, but poking your eye out becomes a legitimate concern.

BakedMoose good 1 about the ol eyeball LOL.

How about growing bamboo or dowels next to your plant. Companion planting. Much less loss of eyes.

I use a bottled silica and I use it every feeding. I grow in hydro though. It's important to ph your solution after adding it. I use 1ml/L.
