Hey AFN fam. I'm on my third grow. 5 days ago I popped 3 feminized beans directly into soil after a 12-hr overnight soak in water. They were planted 1/2" deep. Two came up in two days, one on the third. One of the two earlier ones (now 5 days from start, 3-days above ground) has decided to lay down on me, with the bend directly at the soil line. Is there anything I can/should do? Will she stand back up on her own? They are all developing their first true leaves and are outdoors in the Florida sun with two layers of screen over top to give them filtered sun. I can't start them under lights inside. The daytime temps have been in the low 80's. Thanks in advance.
 
Don't worry bout her...no special attention....leave her to do her thang. got one of'em right now...luscious most of the time....feed and burp as usual.

Stick a popsicle stick or anything small in there and tie her up with some string. Not too tight, just enough to hold her up. She should be fine. Don't leave it sitting in the soil.
 
i like to use a bread tie around a stick with a split loop t hold them up.
