hollowed stems?

[prettygirlsmokes420]

Here goes again guys, another silly question...
The stems on the damaged plants are hollow (not that I've looked at the nondamaged ones closely like that yet, as I've not yet had to take them down) but its not like its a tiny hole. I could make canna-straws with my stems! I managed to carefully take a pic, but it doesn't show the real problem. The stem is cracking from the inside-out. The hole all the way through the heart of the stem, is very bad in some places. Only on a couple plants does it look as if they are drying out com the inside. All my techniques and lights, ect. Are all good, this is the result of continuing my grow of the sick plants I mentioned in another thread awhile back. I wanted to wait and see what they would do (hopefully recover) but I'm not that lucky.
Can somebody tell me what I did wrong??
Shoulda took em out when they first started goin all funny, but curiosity killed the cat!
I wanna learn from whatever I did wrong...

I've said this before.. No Question is stupid if you don't know,right?

That hole in the stalk is the plant water way. That is the first place the water is sucked up and distributed amongst all the hungry,vegetation. That seems to be the main stalk/top. Is it? That's the one that takes alot more care when taking it as a cutting. You gotta be fast when you take that part of the plant as a cutting to be a clone. Harder to root,too! Lots of risk for an embolisim or air bubble to present itself and kill the cutting. I've taken cuttings from all parts of the plant and the lower to middle branches do best. Just the fact that they have more plant matter in the stems versus the hollow ones.

I'm not really sure what has gone wrong.. I hope that some of what I posted is a help to ya!

It's not ready to be harvested or cloned. I took it down cuz its goin to shit. I'm very disappointed, the issue isn't exactly the hole in the stem, its that its cracking from the inside out. There's no cell structure on the walls of the stem, the hole shouldn't be that big. I just took another one down this morning, a healthy one. ( it was done and its the strain as hollowed one). And it looks nothing like that on the inside of the other stem. I'll post some better pics...
There's a big difference.
Healthy one on the bottom,
Bouge one in the top.

What it looks like on the whole...
The sour Hindu clone that was healthy that I harvested is some stinky, so I'm dissapointed in the "infected" one.
Look carefully to see the cracked stem.

I see what cha mean,now.. That's weird,too! Cause all my outdoor plants would get tall and heavy. Some of the side branches would break and you could see the cannastraw hole. They were big holes,too. I'm wondering now if that was happening to my outdoor plants? I will try and find out what might be going on! Hang in there,don't get discouraged at this point. This is only gonna make you a better grower in the end. I do think your enthusiasm is OFF THE CHART! Great trait to possess!

Was that the one you had in the dwc bucket???

It looks like it suffered from some type of plant disease....

[prettygirlsmokes420]

No its not thank gosh! Lol
This plant is from my 38 plant harvest thats coming up. After that ill do the dwc budding. That's what I thaught about the plant disease, given the circumstances and symptoms, but I'm by no means an expert so...
Wth disease is it? It's awefull. I have no tricolms or resunglands, and my growth is stunted; they just won't get any bigger, and the "disease" is getting worse...
Ugh.
Super glad it only claimed like eight plants so far....(note the sarcasm)
Shitty mcshits

[CanGroIt]

Have you looked at the root zone of any of the ones affected???

Cause the prob looks like it's from something that's going on in the root zone....

No I havnt yet but I will, also I found a pic in my book that shows exactly what my plants are doing. (Duh)
But ill post what it says when I get home and actually do some.reading.
I'm at work tee-hee
