Hey fellow Kentuckian: Greetings from the west!
Have you thought about bracing and using some grafting wax? :)
i have nothing to make a good brace.
and would braces wax help?
i know i should seal the wound but with what?
should i give it some neosporin, you know to fight infection???
finally someone from KY!!!!!
im gunna put you on my friend list just for that.
Nah, don't use Neosporin. Google grafting a plant. any basic botany site should have the details. There are several fancy products you can use, but is basically like putting a cast on our arm. I have used bamboo braces and wrapped with grafting tape, then sealed with pruning sealer etc. Sooner the better. If you can take stress off limb by pinning with string to ceiling etc. will help braces hold. :)
i know about grafting.
ill throw some wax that you use for braces on it.
i talked to a guy at the local hydro store he said if you can eat it you can use it on your plants.
ive eaten ortho wax and it came out the same way it went in so i guess it will have to do.
I once did the same thing to a StrawberryCough...I hung a strand of fishing leader above and used it to support the stem while it repaired itself...While this was taking place ,near-by branches competed to become the dominant cola and grew some amazingly large tips...I wish I had a digital camera back then because it was quite a sight...:jointsmile:
ok ill strap her inplace tomorrow.
also i took a fat peice of wet TP and smashed it around the broken part.
Just leave it be, you keep touching it and throwing stuff on it, it will get infected. Happened to me once, DT's right, top grew massive and tops next to the break took off. It will heal on it's own.
ive only touched it once, that was to put wet toilet paper on it.
it had shown no signs of the bend happening at all.
thanks for the speedy answers.
how will i know if it gets infected?
Hey you old hillbilly, how's that plant doing? Did you tie it up to the ceiling?:) What part of the hills are you from? I live on the O-HI-O (Cherokee for good place to grow), and several others.........Not too far from Metropolis, Home of SuperMan.
I had a plant once and the light fell on it. It broke a big branch almost off. I just left it alone and after a while it healed up. It looked weird. I didn't want to lose the branch but was surprised it wound up ok.
I usually splint it with a toothpick and some tape...it's mcguyver style at its's best...but it works
