[GrowinGreen23]

i knwo this is a stupid thing to be doign or even asking but did anyone ever have it where you needed to replant a plant or move a plant and when you did it seemed to bend at a point where you then needed to support it? I had to replant mine cause there was just no room and when i did the top toppled over a little so now i have it supported with a straw and string liek you woudl a tomatoe plant is this ok i mean will they come out of this misfortune?

You need to eventually support your plant or it will continue to break. That's one reason I SCROG. It will help make it strong if you keep it gently moving back and forth with a fan, but if you get a good yeild, strong buds will break right off unless tied to something or supported somehow.

With a little TLC you might be suprised what damage you can do to weed (and a lot of plants) and still have it survive. I recently broke one good sprout almost completly off, and I lifted it back up and supported it and it is going to live. It was probably broke 90% through.

Scrog is where you have alot of small plants budding early through a screen, and you can take little harvests alot, instead of one harvest every (How ever many months)

Sog is the same (Sea Of Green)
Scrog (Screen Of Green)

ok good thing to note, can you scrog with any plant type of just about any species?

[newgoal300]

dropped another plant on top of another and broke it right off, taped it together and supported it w/ a stick, it survived and was one of the best plants

yeah but when i start to bud it, it will have all that added weight how can i make sure or prevent the toppling effect?

Go to Home Depot or a builders supply and ask where the poultry netting is. Don't get it, but instead get something like fence material that has openings about 4" x 4". I made my scrogs out of poultry netting, but the holes are a little too small (about 3/4" square). Suspend the netting above your plant and tie the buds to it to support them. Either that or just smash the plant down a little with the screen and start a sort of scrog. If you go with this option you'll want the openings in the screen to be about 1" x 2".

Actually you can decide whatever is best for you. Anything will work as long as the buds are supported somehow. You could, for example, put some screws in the wall and tie the buds to them. Or you could make an elaborate system of ropes and pullies. It doesn't really matter, just support them.
