Wicketcommentedweek 510 months ago
Im far from a expert and never did this so i don't know if it would work, but i guess what i would try to do is to give her more veg time and bend the whole stem to the left side down so many new branches will grow out. Or you toss it and start over. :D Like i said i don't know if it would make sense, so please don't follow my tips wait for others, i just wanted to tell my opinion. Whatever you do, i hope it will turn out good for you! All the best

Thank you for sharing your journals and good luck with your transfer damage nothing but good vibes to you. Im sure you will get past this. However yes, if you plan to transfer during a grow, using a small, well aerated, hard container is typically best until you get them into their forever pots. It allows water to drain, soil to compact a little, and the roots have a designed placed to grow until they are ready to transfer. That way when you transfer you can typically just flip, squeeze a little, and they hold together while you set them into the new pot.

@@Growsparta, Just trying not to kill mine either... but the best advice I can give in mainline, is a lesson I learned the hard way too... early damage can be fully recovered by end of flower - just have to give time before any new stress.

@Insaniac_0, nice one mate, for sure a lesson leaned the hard way, I’ve seen your mainlines, they look dope, hoping to try achieve something similar with this one, I’ve been studying your grows week by week for any visual tips, keep a watch over this one let me know if I’m doing any think seriously wrong 😅

If you can bottom brace it, it will be fine and continue to grow. However it 'does' take some overall yield from your final results because those recovery days are growth days lost. The best thing I can tell you right now is not to worry so much about these tree trunk branches that will eventually be groomed to nothing so the higher colas get the light/air/nutes. The main thing in veg is to simply train to where you want the stretch to come from and try to make clear water ways for the nutes to travel from the roots. Early damage is recoverable and barely even noticeable by harvest if you back brace the damage early and mend the break with a little time - otherwise, yes - you can grow the other side out and allow some lower 'branches' to grow into that direction before flip so that when you flip you get the most out of those branches too (personally not a fan of this method) TIP: whenever you do damage, it's a good idea to lower the lights a little for a day - it seems to help in recovery since they do most growing in lower light conditions. Also when bending or 'breaking' a limb, try crushing the stem with a something hard like a pen (I use knitting needles) then work them to bend a little at a time over n over until you get them where you want. And ALWAYS support the branch from the node with your other hand to prevent it snapping off while you bend or break it higher up.

@Insaniac_0, nice one mate appreciate you checking in and pointing me in the right direction, now you say it I know where I went wrong, as the branches where so small and fresh if i supported the node when bending I don’t think it would have snapped. I’ve seen your knitting needles in one of pictures and wondered what it was for, I’ll have to raid my granny’s equipment see if I can get some 😂. So I didn’t do a great job back bracing the branch and didn’t turn my lights down and obviously it just died off. I have cleared that side and allowed the other side to continue growing, it’s growing straight up like the main stem would, I’ve now topped that and letting both sides grow out and create 2 new main lines, I going to use this one to learn and make mistakes on as I have a ak47 a couple weeks behind hopefully I can do a better job on, I’ll be updating some point tomorrow, Thanks again bro

bro stop damaging plants, I don't care plants, I care you time and grams you are missing let them grow as they wanna grow, they will give you more and faster if you are growing for an yield and to get high lol Good Luck friend, we are at same ship, love 😻😻😻

@GrowthConsultant, thanks for your advice and I’ve actually been told this before and considered this method, I think if your good at training which I may not be all the time, there is definitely benefits from training, keeping plant height down, eliminating undeveloped buds. I think every body does some sort of training even down to defoliation to help improve air flow light penetration. I did do a terrible job so I in this instance you are definitely right bro
