ok first of all there is nothing left to tape it back to, the bottem piece of the stem is gone as are the roots. Heres what i did: I bought root hormones a sterile scaple and whatever those round disk are that u start seed or saplings in. I made a nice clean diaganol slice at the bottem of the stem dipped it in water and rolled it in root hormone. i then but it in the disk wich i put in a pot (didnt bury it) and then covered it with a clear plastic bag. i had to put it back in my grow area with the other one but i turned my lighting down from 20/4 to 18/6. I think i did eveything i can do so all i can do now is hope for the best. thanks for the all the help guys esp. you garden gnome. Ill let you guys know how it turns out..........peeeeeaaacccee
