Well the first pic you fucked up.

Seems like you tried to 'counter' the bend of the main stem. This tie will reduce the ability of the stem to grow and thicken at that point where the tie is.

NOT GOOD. You are now stressing the stem in opposit directions. THis is not really what we wanted to achieve.

We want to arrive at a tied down plant that allows more light to the secondary growth. The tie at the stem base serves NO purpose in arriving at that goal.

REmove it and just loosen the first tie at the top....the fern will right herself up and then take her down like I said a half and inch a day or two.

PIC 2 I guess is a nother view of fern / pic #1.

LMAO...man you didnt fuck around did you? You bent that bitch 90 degress and said fuck to hell with the gentle...kind...soft approach.

Not sure why all the twisty tie...

two holes at container edge.

run the end of the twisty up thru the hole.

run it and just loop it across the stem you want to bend.

run it down thru the second hole.

gently twist the ends together.

start slow and take down a little more every day.

make sure the twusity tie doesnt cut into the stem.

You got the right idea....just take it easy.....one tie....one bend....one tie...one bend.

remember the goal.....

to allow light to hit the secondary growth. if it doesnt accomplish this, dont put a tie there.

attached is a pic of WHORE who almost got killed last week. since she wilted, it is fairly easy to see how i have tied one of the stems...blow up the picture and look at the right side of the pic....

do it like that.....simple and clean....

I knew the LORD had a reason for the disaster for WHORE....

THANK YOU LORD FOR ALMOST KILLING WHORE SO I COULD SHOW HER PICS ON THE TIE to magicbud....
