legal buds.. not a noobie question ;)

ok thanks alot boys :p u wont belive how my 1'st serious grow is going, i was just out 2 water them and i noticed that 1 has grown about 2 inches or more in the last 2 days only :O im gunna be verry excited 2 try the bud.. it smells like a skunk shit itself (in a good way) lol

does anyone know a technique to harden (not fatten) stems other than wind ? like a soluble or something to buy to harden the stems ?? im afraid one is goung too snap because it's so bushy on top :):):)... :s lol

sry for the doubble post but the legal bud i wanted to see a pic of it because i was thinking of getting an o to mix with bud rather than dirty and fast burning tobacco, but after seeing that u have 2 admit the pic that legal buds provide looks nothing like the real thing ;) ta bro
