I let the dog out to shit this morning, and he found a new place to
lay his dumb ass down!!! right up against my plant!! and he
broke a branch that is growing a foot long cola !!! its snapped in half
but its still attached and staying in place by itself, will it still mature??
it still has a month to go before i harvest!! What should i do???
Please help meeeee! I really dont want to break that branch off,
it will probably yield an oz. by it self, and its not mature enough
im sure it will get me super stoned right now, but i dont need the weed and if i can id rather let it grow please tell me what to do??

if it is fresh enough, you can put tape around the branch to try and save it...
i have saved many a branch i fucked up

...and if tape alone won't support it, you can use a splint along with the tape, or string.
Not that this applies here, but for smaller plants that are still growing, I use toilet paper instead of tape. You wrap the wound then mist it. When the tp dries, it's pretty hard/strong, yet there's still a wee space for the stem to breath AND it just falls off after the stem is healed and growing.
Good luck :thumbsup:

but will it still get water and nutes to the bud??? he broke it in an upward direction, so when i pulled it back down it stays in place
just fine it doesnt even need tape or anything. but will it get the water and nutes it needs and will it still mature??? or wil it try to grow
new branches from where it broke like FIM'ing????

Bro, this has happened to someone I know. Just leave it alone, the plant will heal it self up. :D

plants move nutrients and water through the stem through osmosis, so aslong as t
here are some of the cells touching it will still suck up the nutrients and water that it needs

I have a killer White Widow mother. (The real deal - pleasant, perfumey taste; the room smells more like you're burning incense than smoking pot.) When I brought home the original clone it fell over in the car and the stem had a real bad bend in it. I really wanted this strain so I just did what I thought would be best for that dinky-ass clone and it worked great.
I still have that plant and she is so prolific she puts out more clones than three real healthy Master X Bubba mothers that I have. I last cut her on Sept. 6th and I have to cut her again today or tomorrow. About three score clones per cutting. LOL Sometimes I feel like I'm raising tribbles. I added molasses and Sweet to my nutes this last cycle and the plant just exploded with growth.
