Hey guys. This is my like 5 days plant. I came to my plant to see if everything is OK. Everything was good, the plant was looking healthy and it was standing up. When i came back in about 5 hours, i saw that the plant was just like crushed. It was lying on the ground. I put a prop nearby it and tied it up very easily. I watered it with 100ml of water. Yesterday i wasn't watering it. I thought it will be better for plant to grow. Please, help me. What i need to do ? The plant looks healthy right now, but it cant just stand, it's falling down...
Need help, plant just went down

bury it deeper . you have to support it under dirt, transplant it or re pot it. a stake will not work if its sagging down/dying. plant it so the leaves are right on the dirt sticking out then water it around the edge of the pot. unless its dead already

From seed at 5 days? Make crutch with a loop at the top with a twist tie. Stick twist tie into soil. Loosely wrap loop around top of stalk right below the leaves. In a week or 2 it will stand on its own. This is pretty common. Ive had sproutlings fall over from breathing on them. Or sometimes when you water a sproutling, the roots haven't developed enough to secure itself in soil or what ever. Then becomes loose. First few waterings should be a 5-7 days apart.

Ok sounds like someone forgot the most important step in growing MJ...READ...First you want to get some 6500k CFLs and put one about 2" above the plant so it will stay short, bushy, and strong...next put a small fan (I use a 6" fan) blowing on them constantly to fatten the stalk so it can't fall over and will support the buds in flowering...NEXT...post pics, cause all anyone is doing is guessing right now.......good luck

Is that the plant you were talking about??? It's a seedling dude, don't water it too much and it will take care of itself for the first few weeks, and mix some perlite in with that soil and READ!!!!
And like I said in your other post put a CFL light about 2 inches above it and a small fan blowing on it...

I usually mix my soil 50/50, soil and perlite. It drains more so I have to water more (fresh water/nutrients more often), but I always water so that at least 10-20% drains out (runoff) and if you have city water (depending where you're at) I always use my tap water and let it set out over night to evaperate the chlorine and then PH and water, tap water has chelated minerals your plant needs like Iron, Calcium, and so on...good luck
