Well, more in the Saga of what else can go wrong. I knew this was going to happen, just didn’t think this soon. This was totally preventable, and only possibly time for in the way of getting it done sooner.
The plant never gets any temp changes, and after lots of reading, I see that multiple sources say that can cause stems to grow longer and thinner than they could have when they go into flower, this weakening them.
So probably about 3/4 of her collapsed, opened the tent after a night and almost cried. Almost all the branches were folded over and laying on the screen. I ran out and got some cheap netting to support her. Some of the branches were not kinked at all so those will be fine I think, but there are some that did slightly kink, I’ll be happy if those just finish flowering at the size they are now, just finish
In installing the screen, I likely destroyed about half the flowers from touching them. I had no real choice and minimized it as much as possible, but I literally had to soak my hands in alcohol to get the sticky off. As I said I had no choice or there would have been NOTHING to harvest, hopefully I’ll still get maybe half the yield I would have before?
It doesn’t look nearly as good as it used to, but it is still better than nothing, and I’ll be making the netting better tonight when lights come back on
