I want to spread out the colas on my plant but they're getting a little solid to start bending as they're more than 60cm tall each, Can I use copper coated wire like what they use in Bonsai plants to gently turn them out, it would also help keep the stems firmer

Hello. A mate gave me some Bio Bugs to try out and it's awesome I was trying to find out exactly what strains it has in it. All I can find is that it seems to have one or more Trichoderma and... other stuff. Thanks a lot. Oh while I'm here, I noticed another product called Microbial, does this compare?

Hey guys Been reading the cannabis grow bible(LOVE IT), and it says that, for vegetative growth, NPK ratios of 12-12-12 and 20-20-20 are the best. Problem is, i went down to my bunnings today, and couldnt find a single nutrient product that had the ratios i was looking for. Kept finding things like 20-12-4, 12-18-10 and so on. Where do people buy their nutes from? Maybe its just my local bunnings, or do i have to go to a proper hydroponics shop? A specific brand would be very helpful too. Thanks for all your help in advance. Peace
