wind damage? +rep

will the wind damage my plant? my grow is outdoors about a foot talll and it leans about 1 to 3 inches to the sid efrom wind
is this bad for plant?

If ur nervous about your plant getting damaged you can put a stick in the ground and tie it to the plant to give it more support. I have had some pretty lanky outdoor plants and none have snapped yet. However, if your growing a large producer and it starts budding then idk. Wind can also be useful it can help make a plants stock more thick. Either way use your judgement. Peace

Nah, you should't worry too much about the wind. Those plants are strong enough to withstand some pretty heavy winds. But if wind speeds were to exceed 20+ mph i would find some kinda shelter for my babies

it gets purty windy but ill put a stick up in dere.

oh yeah and unless theres actual buds on your plant, you should be fine. High winds can tear your buds to shreds.

yeah just stake it up and itll be cool... if you are growing outside and your plant gets alot of wind jst about every day or even a few times a week over time it will make the stalk and roots of your plant stronger in the long run. this is because your plant will react to the wind in a way that prevents it from dying. for example, you are growing near the shore and your plant gets a strong breeze coming off the water all the time. also this may cause your plant to grow in the direction that the wind is pushing it and you may notice less branches and leaves on the windy side than the other side. i have heard of some people intentionally doing this to their plants but im not exactly sure as to why. maybe to get them to grow a specific way or something? if you are worried about storms and such it would be best to stake it.

I get a breeze threw my yard all the time and it will not hurt your plants at all. They actually look lovely blowing in the wind once they bush out a little bit then watch them grow. Good Luck

thanks all
