having a fan blow on them will make them stronger, just enough to make the leaves wiggle....not too hard. there are alot of different nutes out there. If you are vegging you want to make sure to get something for that stage and use a budding additive when it comes time to flower.

If you plant is having a hard time standing up, it may be from underwatering or you may need help with root growth. You can stake the plant with a bamboo post or something that will be a sturdy crutch for your plant to rely on! good luck! :jointsmile:

If you have pics of the plants, post them...it will be alot easier to know what is going on if we can see it.
moody420 Reviewed by moody420 on . Plants are "flopping over" Hey, My plants are around 7 or 8 inches tall and are 3 weeks old. They have the characteristic leaves, but the stems are very skinny and they are flopping over because they are top heavy. Is there sometime I could do to "fatten them up." I have this stuff called Manure Tea, which is basically Manure dissolved into water. If i started watering them with this and leaving them outside in the sun for more time each day would that help? Sorry for the beginner questions... :D VV Rating: 5
