Never seen this on ganja, but thinking it kinda looks like maybe the stem was damaged and youve picked up some kind of canker. Doesnt look to be affecting growth too much but i would love to see a cross section of the stem when you chop it :harvest:

I thought you always had big fat stems, hence the name

Unfortunately not Nom. It's to do with my height. I'm a bit of a freak🤣

They're cool, they look like them bonsai you get in Ikea that live for about 3 weeks.

I can do that mate. It looks like it's had a really bad time and recovered.
The top end looking good. Perhaps I shouldn't be moaning 😁

I'm thinking it might be time to give the hydroton a good clean with hydrogen peroxide. It's 3 years old and I've only ever shook roots out and reused.
