Gale force winds for two days and lots of rain. Took a good hit but they are all still green and perky…now some were at 4-5 week of flower. Others 2-3. I want to prop these girls up to help them out. They are on top of each other. Any suggestions or comments are welcomed Thanks Ger ---

A grower I know bought a bunch of bags of dirt (could make sandbags or gravel bags to) And stacked them around the main stocks then tied some string and punched rods into the ground for support lines like with a tent. . Rebar or big tent pegs would work. ---

Has this problem with mine. Lost almost half my plant. I drove a metal fence pbeen fighting the same thing with this 12 foot monster all year. Every wind storm breaks off another branch. ![20210924_134849](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/9/6/f/96fc9003084410b0c4d9c95fc6e412a3ddd917c1.jpeg) ![20210924_134853](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/b/7/0/b703423ccbc777287cd9418b4de67da816e6f108.jpeg) ![20210924_134903](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/b/0/b/b0bc3b2d41d2b6cd7ea75d35b4342dca77e54bf7.jpeg) ---

No it was all immature popcorn buds. Thankfully it hasnt broken any off in the last month so the buds have more than doubled in size. Im not exactly sure what the strain is. I believe its a stray seed from a chemdog plant that crossed with a pink kush that hermied. So im calling it pink dog. ---

High, Well I just spent two hours in the jungle and tied them up and down and around and around. I think they will be okay. The darn flowers are so heavy they’re pulling the branches down. Wow sticky smelly and heavy compacted. Nice if I can get them one more month. Gonna be a fun October again!!

Bro… you got a fence on one side and a building on the other… you could screw small eye bolts into the house and string wire between the house and the fence. Then get some cheap assed crappy cotton string or whatever and hang you stalks off it sorta like this. ![20210920_094449](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/d/c/e/dce9d382aa65c95c2538f0b3c82c34e541f8d966.jpeg) I did this so I could hose my plants down because if aphid infestation early flower. They would hace snapped off otherwise ---

High, I like this idea except they’re way over the fence. I do have a long enough top rail of fence I could do it with. Thanks Happy Growin Ger ---

Yeah I tied em off half way down the stalks… works just fine. They arc over a bit but whatever. The buds are beer can thick and its holding just ducky. ---
