    Default Supporting buds

    Hi talkers my plants are 5 weeks into flower now and the branches and colas are getting heavy.



    The plants aren’t to tall, just over 2 ft tall.

    What is best way to support the colas ?

    I’ve seen these tomato cage things but quite expensive.



    Any other ideas ?

    Thanks Squaggy.

    Canes, cages or yoyos dangling from above work well once plants are established

    Like scaffolding. Uprights around the outside of the pot and then put some smaller canes horizontal from one upright to another, where you need the support the flowers
