Talk About Fucking Luck !!

[RdWhiteOne]

So apparently some of my plants were snapped at the stem this morning.Basically im wondering if I can somehow save the plants since roots and stem is still there ? I cant possibly lose anything by asking right .

[Weezard]

Throw the broken off bit in water right away if it's still there.
Cut the end at a slant and scrape some bark down to the phloem.
Then stick it under some weak light
In a few days it will sprout roots.


If there are any leaves left it may regrow from the root as well.

Good luck,
Weezard

Sadly all thats left is the stem but no leafs whats so ever , there would be no type of hope for them to grow leafs again like if it had sprouted all over again? Thanks for the response by the way .

[Weezard]

Well nothing's impossible.
But a regrow, sans leaves, is a very long shot.
And this late in the year?
That will take more than luck.

Sounds like either something ate them, or you got ripped off.
Did you look for tracks?

Aloha and sympathy,
Weezard

Theres nothing I can do to increase the odds of the regrowth of these babies ? im actually growing in a growbox with a 600w hps/mh light in my garage.what could have possibly ate them ? I was ripped off and I think I know by who -.-

[Weezard]

Sounds like a security problem.

I can picture you making an enormous effort, beating long odd, getting a regrow and feelin' stoked.

Only to come out one morning to a dejavu. :(
I'd get my security duck lined up as a high priority.
Then all I can tell you about the regrow is your 600W HPS is too much light for a regrow.
If, you do see any sign of re-leafing, back off on the light.
A couple small CFLs will be plenty for the first sets.
A large rootball supplying just a few leaves is a good thing, but we want her to have incentive to grow more foilage, yah?

And now ya gotta wait for someone who knows more about this.
I'm wondering if a root pruning would help because I do not know.
Your best goto for that, would be Rusty Trichome, but he got banned here.
He's on a few other boards though, google him and ask.

EDIT:
Here's some regrow info:

GaGrown has some excellent advice here.

It's usually someone you know, listen to the weez, long time low light might work.

Get a recording of a really big dog barking & growling, then find a techno geek who can rig your recorder/cd player, what ever, to a motion detector, having 'the dog' replay every time the motion detector is tripped. Maybe even you yelling something like 'WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOURE DOING!' along with the viscous sounding dog. Of course its someone you know. I'm into vigilante justice, but if I told you what I would do, Weeze would scold me! (I'm a BAD girl)! :)

[RdWhiteOne]

Lol catbuds sounds so ridiculous but its actually not a bad approach! I just need to set up a camera pointing straight at the grow box to avoid future issues. Thanks for the wise words and ideas , but sadly i gave up on them.Since i figured it would be faster to grow a new strain rather then waiting for a miracle regrow.? Didn't take much detective work to figure out it was a inside job. My brother in law to be exact ,prick thought he would get away with it ...

[catbuds]

Weeze can tell you how I feel about thieves. I hope you got even. Your sister would hate you if you killed the bastard, so how about tying his dick in a knot & then convincing your sister its a new type of french tickler! Oh.. never mind.... I guess you don't want to touch it. Hummm............

Nothing I hate more than a fucking thief. Its even worse when its SUPOSED to be someone you SHOULD be able to trust!!!! I'd whip his ass once a week, just BECAUSE! :( :( :( :(

[Weezard]

I agree with your sentiment CB, and I understand how you feel.
Thing is, been riding the wheel of life for quite a while now and have some personal experience with betrayal of trust.
That and I'm much meaner about these things. :D

Consider.

There can not have been more than a few people that knew of the grow.
It was in a secured area with limited access.
No attempt at a red herring, (Little cat fur, some rat shit, broken window pane, jimmy marks, etc.)
So, this guy's elevator does not go all the way to the top floor, yah?

My best instinct is to try to help him with his need for ethics, but.
In my experience, that kind of stupid, goes to the bone.
You can't fix that!

But there's also no need to compromise your own self-esteem.
Karma may be slower, but it's thorough and imaginative.
When ya do shitty things you lose respect for yourself!
And "No matter where you go, there you are!"

My advice is to maintain enough connection for a front row seat to this train-wreck of a person.
Unrecognized guilt is insidious, and will seek punishment, he will set himself up for a fall, over and over.
Without dirtying your hands with this prick, you will have your revenge many times over just watching him screw himself up.

If you live long enough and pay attention, I'm betting you will come to the same understanding.
Why wait? :D

Aloha,
Weeze
