flimsy stalk

i am not sure if the doze is exactly 1/2 the strength but i am positive that i gave them about the same amout of miracle grow each week. i have been giving them the same amount for about 2 months so i will try increasing the amount that i give them. i havent watered them in two days and they are still looking really healthy and bright green. i have also been giving them a good shaking in the morning when i go outside nothing big that will hurt the plant. my friend told me to use gatorade powder and mix it in water and give them about one gallon of water a week with a little gatorade powder mixed in to hydrate the plant. i was wondering if this would help at all? or i have also heard of carbonated water because it helps to get oxygen to the roots? i too have also heard that miracle grow isnt the best plant food so i will be getting a new one soon and see how that works.

to answer your question aaron they were in small pots about 2 and half gallons until about three weeks ago. i then planted them into the grounbd about three weeks ago and the roots were pot bound as expected. they have grown about a foot maybe more since i have put them in the ground. there is nothing wrong with the plants they look very heathly and green and are growing fine they are just not as strong as i would like them to be. i will get some pictures up tomorrow or later today.

I'm going to assume there is chemicals in gatorade that might not be safe for growing and say that's probably not a good idea. There has gotta be another source of carbonation that's more pure if you really want to go ahead and try it.

well i dont want to give me plant something that is not good for it. i take it that you know what you aret talking about so i will pass on the gatorade. i think the best thing to do now is just wait and let the soil completely dry and then set up a watering schedule that works from there.
also i went to the store and there were so many nutes i didnt know what to get. what are some of the ones that are popular to cannabis?

Make sure you don't let the soil too long you don't want to go to other extreme lol. You should probably look at foxfarms nutrients. Look for the ones called growbig, tiger bloom, and big bloom, they usualy come in a 3 pack (at least online usualy. If you want to talk to the guy at the store about it you could say your growing tomatoes because most nutrients that are okay for tomatoes are ok for cannabis.
