Accidental stem bend

TrulyScrumptious
TrulyScrumptiousstarted grow question 4 years ago
I accidentally cause a break in one of the cola's stems. Just wondering if folk with experience could say if this is likely to be a problem and if so how much of a problem? Was thinking I could put some Rhizotonic dilution in a spray bottle to help her recover?

Hello I super crop often nowadays as it's fun and a good way to move branches away from the lights if they get too tall. Since it doesn't look like you broke it completely it looks like it will heal. Support the branch with a small stick(kabob/marshmallow/ bamboo) whatever you have around and just watch for healing. Try not to mess with it too much, and a very mild spray solution may help(kelp extract or others like rhizo) but ideally you want it to heal up and turn into a joint like an elbow look...so eventually letting it dry and heal like a scab will be best. Usually a crack might secrete some small amounts of fluid and it'll heal with time. Just watch closely to see if any foliage starts to wilt or die off. *sometimes you can tape the wound so debris won't get in...but again the break looks pretty clean from the photo. Happy growing. ✌️

She will recover, I seen an entire field trampled from a moose and that field was amazing when it finished. Cheers
