I've looked all over the web and seen many methods of holding those monster buds of mine. I like the netting but I don't know what it's called or where to find it. Also a few of my plants have long stalks (3 foot) before the plant bushes out. I wonder why, and what's my best option to hold those babies up? Help me...lol!!
How do I hold my heavy buds up?

Any garden store can sell you plant stakes, gtet some and zip tie the stem to the stake. Problem solved.

The netting is called trellis and it works really well. Stakes are good for a few plants but with trellis you can support a whole room/field in a few minutes. You can also also use some cool techniques if you start out with it. I get mine at a hydro shop in town, 15$ for 8ftx30ft of it.
Never zip tie or anything that can not be adjusted for growth, you'll constrict your girls. Twist ties are better.

if u do use zip ties jus leave them loose so they dont constrict ur girls allowing for growth and usually put the jus under a branch so it allows for more growth

Awww, you poor thing. LOL
I would get some plant stakes. They're cheap and easy to use and they will hold up your plants until you're ready to harvest.
