1 light fell and snapped 1 nice branch 3 wks into flower. It wasnt pinched so I suppose it was a snap still connected though, if I prop it up will it heal?
Not trying to be flip or anything, I've had some broken limbs flourish and some wither and die. You'll know pretty quick if it's going to die off. Wet
Your correct. I give it a 20% chance of living. It was a thorough snap. Im hoping for the best though.
I have a 2in piece of plastic straw wrapped around it, it holds it up fine but it hasnt started healing yet. tell me about trimming, if I cut leaves off will other parts grow better??
I had a top branch break off on me about 3 weeks into flower and now it is 3 tops all bigger than the rest of the tops that I bent over. Idk but I am pretty happy about it now lol.
i've had plants snap around this time as well, one made it and one didnt, if its not dead within a few hours it should recover fine, since this thread is still active with updates i will assume she's fine, good luck and secure those lights!
Thanks for your thoughts, it is still alive! I have a piece of plastic straw holding it up, if I take it away it will drop, the snap hasnt healed at all yet, but right above the snap where it was healthy, has gotten really fat. Theres just a few micro hairs keeping it alive, so as long as i keep the straw in place it will be fine.
Like others have said, just tape it up to allow moisture to pass through the break, and 9 times out of 10 it will heal just fine... just think of it as an easy graft, being broken from the same plant, and re-attached in the same place, gives it better odds of success. Using tape (anything from simple scotch as Nick suggested, to proper grafting tape) I've never lost a broken branch, no matter the size of the branch or the severity of the break. Getting to it before it dries out is the key.
same happen to mr and it was lil 3 weeks in veg she was still a baby .iproped her up sdshe had like the skin on the outside to hold it to the bottom though and another thing cant u rub out and buy routing powder and try that plz let me know if this works but try routing powder god luck and wish u the pest mine made it amazingly e.. and know the stems doubleing in thickness then all the resst ohh and shes the best looking one two
Lol sorry it took so long to respond. It didn't heal, it broke off completely but within a week there were lots of new buds growing.
