    Likewise - duct tape here LOL. Not a builder though!

    I split the main stem on an auto plant, yeah, the ones that generally are advised against topping - which I did. Anyway, taped her up and she just carried on flowering like nothing had happened. The wound was strong enough to hold itself up in just over a week.

    I've split main stems in two, on two plants, as they're a bit tougher to bend in flower than veg, wired up and supported and they were fine up to harvest. I'm smoking one of them now

    Wire, duct tape, straws, bamboo skewers etc. whatever works and is handy, they're hardy plants...

    Fair play “tight u bends” I’d shit myself if I did that man haha. One step at a time for me lol.
    My wire is probably a big thin then. It’s like 1mm tops, maybe thinner.

    Yeah I can imagine. These pots got a good rim, simply bend wire over the lip and up underneath, it’s holding them well. Occasionally slip off tho while feeding.

    Cheers Mate
    I have the same wire...Tie a loop tight around the top of the pot (under the rim) then connect your lst ties to that, works well

    Thanks for all the help guys.

    Stupid question but...Will the ties always stay on the plant until the harvest or do they get removed?

    Do any of you guys use support rings? I have some,I guess I’ll use them once I flip them and they get taller?
