question

[zekeyboy]

I went outside and something had fell on one of my topped plants and broke the stem on one of the top colas. It's bent over and the leaves look dead. Can I go ahead and clip off the part that's broken? It's 3 or 4 weeks into flowering. Reason I ask, is because I heard you should never clip a plant that's flowering. Will the rest of the plant be alright if I clip it? I dont want dead growth hanging on my plant.

is there a pic..how late into flowering...if you can see where it broke and its still attached just tape it together it will live and heal itself...bad thing is you might up with a hermie plant but you will have feminized seeds from that plant.,all of wich may turn out to be hermies themselves but if givin a good life they should do fine and grow good plants...

good luck just tape it together if u can you could feed it some superthrive it claims to be very good for plants ive used it on my seedlings and they grew very strong compared to when i didnt use it...but use a fert thats has like 10-10-10 npk number...

My last grow got thrown over my deck with 2- 3' plants in the grow tray. Two branches broke, but i taped em and they grew out. They are in my avatar pic. They did Hermie tho

Grew 5-6'.

I tried to tape it, but I think it was too little, too late. It's just hanging there, and the leaves look very sad. There just hanging there too. Makes me want to cry. And there about 3 1/2 weeks into flowering.
