Snapped a branch......

Discussion in 'First Time Marijuana Growers' started by ray83man, Jul 6, 2015.

  1. Snapped a main branch about 50% the way through off at the main stalk. im 1 week into flower. o have propped the branch back up so its in the most contact with its torn parts. angry with myself... what are the odds the branch will survive?


     
  2. Well you need to do what i did....i did the same exact thing except my lights fell on my plant while i was away and it banana style split my plant down the middle. I took gardening twine and wrapped it nice and tight around the effected area, and i went into my kitchen and took a spray bottle with me, i made a mixture offfffffff


    6.5ph'd water
    Tiny amount of Honey
    1/10 the str of my nutrient solution and i applied once every hr for 6hrs. That gives it a nice coat of antimicrobial and mold resistant honey into the broken area, adds a little bit of sweetness i guess XD and helps bind the fibers back together.


    And i also tied some Garden twice AROUND the ENTIRE plant to give it more support due to the way my plant broke
    Mind you this was 2 weeks into flowering.

    This is what my splint looked like that i saturated with the solution i made

    And this is what it looked like 5 days later

  3. Happened to me and Jerry over in the organic lounge suggested duct tape. It's working like a charm and apparently the tape will rip away as the plant grows.


    Good luck.

     
  4. dont think i can get tape in there i have it propped into place pinned back flash to flesh ill see about getting some honey
     
  5. Try to tape it up, or somehow reconnect it. Make sure its tightly done. It should repair itself, its a very resiliant plant. Good luck!

    What I did.
    Deep inside that bush.
    Aluminum with thin Paper coat in some honey and tie with soft flexible wired to hold it in place.

  7. day 1 into the mend, checked this morning to make sure the branch was still propped up right. limb is supporting its own weight. gonna leave the crutch in place few more days to make sure its fully healed. thanks for all your input
