My one plant is huge and the colas were falling over, like they were laying sideways instead of upright. The plant was like this for about a week or so, so the buds probably fattened up a lot cause of the extra light they were getting. Anyways, the colas are supported now- i taped a 2x4 onto the pot and then strung the colas onto it. String is a pain in the ass, i agree, but I just used what was on hand at the time.
well if you have weaker stems wouldnt that energy that would have been used for the stem be in making bigger buds. id rather have to mess with keepin the plant up and have big buds then having strong stems? just my .02
don't think its exactly like that but im not positive...
strong stems = can hold alot of weight = lots of herb
that's all well and good but a fatter stem can move more water and nutrients faster than skinny stems can hence fatter stems = fatter budsQuote:

currently my 3 day old plants are falling over... how should i counteract this?
(too small for a fan really, as they are only have the initial 4 leafs)
i've only read a little, but you may try burying them a little bit deeper under the surface, errr cover the stalk some
wish i could, its a hydro setup :/
i guess ill have to get some toothpicks and floss :)
Move your lights closer....they are stretching because the light is: a) too far away or b) you don't have enough lightQuote:
