Yo. I was in my grow room the other day and I was checkin out some of the buds on my female. I was jus saying to my self, "man these buds look good," when I dropped a light fixture on the top cola. The whole top half of the cola snapped about 60 percent of the way around the stem to the point where it was dangling. I staked the plant and fertalized it, and two days later it appears to be doing alright. I was wondering if, since the stem is still partially intact and supported if the plant will be able to get nutrients through it and continue budding for antother two weeks. Can I expect to see things go down hill, or do you think it will bounce back? What are some ways I can ensure survival?

- Thanks a.m.

Just try it out and see what happens, from my experience, some strains are more forgiving than others, I have a plant that broke in half, I just taped it back with a bandaid and it healed right away..

This is actually a fairly popular method. Growers snap the stems in hopes that they will fix themselves and become much larger and more efficient in moving nutrients and water, therefore promoting growth.
