Just a few minutes ago i was looking at my baby girl and shes been flowering for about two weeks now and i did the worst thing in the world to her
the tie-down that was around the top of the stem pulled at her when i was trying to move risers underneath her
the bottom of the main stem broke!!!!!!
Am i completely screwed or what?!!?!?!?!?!
PLEASE HELP
Do you mean broke like totally broke in two or like bent really bad?
PC :smokin:
it broke like half-way through so i put duct tape around it
bandaged it the best i could...
totally snapped though
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say you killed it. If it broke at the bottom half way through, its likely you severed the pathways for the nutrients from the roots and I don't think its reparable. Even if it was, I don't think duct tape would be the bandage of choice. I'd take the tape off and use maybe like a wet paper towel or something to hold it. If its too heavy to hold by itself, maybe try using some kind of splint held on the top and bottom with twist ties. You should use something wet I would think.
I could be wrong (and probably am). Hope someone can provide a more informed answer.
I bet it will heal. leave it bent over and continue to care for it.

or you can stake it up. you have definately stunted it, but it will still finish.
Thankyou for all of the replies...
i went out and bought another light for it
the same one that i had before
see it clearly went into shock at first but after about another 15 minutes it was back reaching for the light
that seemed like a good sign.
Wish her luck!!!
I was thinkin maybe wet paper towl and wrap it in Gauze???
:thumbsup:
Yeah man that sounds good. You definitely don't want the wound drying out. Glad to hear its looking up!
