Baby is on the wonk!

[Smoko]

Pics explain all ...

I'm just wondering what to do about it ...

I'm wondering, if I was to put in a small stick vertical to straighten the main stem up. What will happen to the axis of the leaves, as they'll be TOTALLY on the wonk!

Or! ... will they level out with time? ...

Anyone?

Looks like they are leaning toward the light to me, give them a little turn.

Howdy smoko! Wanna try a free and easy experiment? Okay, rotate that plant 180 degrees from it's present spot. Then see the leaves leaning the opposite way? Good. Now leave it alone for an hour and check it again. I bet you will see the answer. If not, I am betting the light isn't directly above the pot. Try the test and let us know. Somebody will likely have another idea. Later,

Whew! For a minute there I thought this was going to be an X rated thread... if you call it a "wonk" and you 'baby' will get on it... Well, YOU know what I mean... Are you in the UK? That expression "on the wonk" is cracking me up... lol~!

To everything (turn, turn, turn)
There is a season (turn, turn, turn)
And a time for every purpose, under heaven

A time to be born, a time to die
A time to plant, a time to reap...

there is absolutely positively nothing wrong with that plant. It just has a little "gangsta lean"

You'll have to excuse some of my terminology ...

Yes I'm originally from the UK, London, but now reside down under. Just to clear that up.

Yeah I know the plants can, and do, lean towards the light, but we put the plant bang below the bulb. Always have done, but this little baby did the wonk on me overnight ...

We've done some gental prodding and got her upright again, see how we go!

does there be a fan blowing on it ever?

Yeah we currently have a 4" PC fan on her and her sister.

So yeah, she's proped up all straight on her own again. See how we go!

I'm off to chop her older sister's head off! ...

Well I woke to the baby on the wonk again ...

I removed roughly an inch of soil from around the stem and have took a pic.

What do ya all reckon?

Incidently I've got some fine soil and have took the level of soil to almost the top of the pot, in a hope of it giving it some extra support.

Re pot it up to its first set of leaves

eace:

It's ok to pot it THAT far? ... ... altho I know nothing, just wouldn't of thought it.

Anyway, as I said I've added extra soil that prob equates to an extra inch, and put her back in her proper position.

If I find the same tomorrow, I'll transplant I think and take the soil higher again.

Thanks ...
