I was tying my plants down and I barely bent this branch down and it snapped! And Right where it snapped a large white worm came out!!!Like it was inside of the stalk. So is there anyway to save this branch?? But maybe this was a goodthing. At least the worm is no longer inside my plant hopefully he was the only one!
cutworms. You might be alright, creepy, though, isn't it?
Yea it was creepy looking!!! You think there is a way to save the branch? It didnt snap the whole way. It just split down the middle.
Go to store where you can buy some gardening tape and some gardening sticks. I prefer the bamboo sticks if you can find them for cheap. I buy 5 to 7 foot sticks to support branches when the plant starts to thicken out. Line the branch back up with the stalk evenly and wrap it tight. Might be a good idea to maybe pour some rooting solution in there also. After the branch is wrapped up where it broke, I would then support the branch with the stick. Tie it in a couple of spots. Hopefully it isn't too late and your branch survives!
