Hey!
Same thing applies for this one..
I've had this happen a couple of times.
You need to top a bit higher, leave more stem to help reinforce that zone.
After taking away the support she splits because each branch falls to a side..
Good news it's fixable. Bad news she will be going through a bit of stress, depends on how long it takes you to repair the damege.
You're on the right path with that black ta but you need somthing stronger like nylon tie to hold that together.
If the stem is still fresh place soemthing smooth like a little pice of cloth or something that won't damage the stem when tieing with the nylon tie.
After doing that on top place a humid paper towel and make sure it stays humid, you'll have to pay attention to that..
Leave it cover and make sure it's tight. If done right in time she'll heal up. Don't worry about it.
Hope this helped.
Good luck and happy growing!

Always leave a little nub when topping . Less chance it will split later on .

Yellow edges. First time grower.From a random seed found in Big Cheese bud. It was first outside, but got stunted, so i decided to do my first indoor grow. When do I switch to flower? It's 15 inches high, and 21 inches wide, and smells lovely. Some yellow edges forming. I think it's been in about 6 weeks.

Flip to flower delayed because of extension cord led light. Just a delay or problems ahead?After 1,5 weeks of 12/12h, I started to worry why the plant was not showing any signs of flowering and I decided to get in to the tent to check for any light leaks. YES: Extension cord's led was shining in the darkness.
Is this just a delay or am I going to face problems?a year ago

Name those babies! Strawnana Auto!It's name that baby time! Can I please have your suggestions for names for these two sisters, both Strawberry Banana Auto.
Names beginning with S and B, one of each - bonus points for a great pair.
The darker one is plant A, the lighter plant B.

Broke Main Stem :(While trying to bend the main stem down I got too daring and broke it halfway through. I immediately grabbed some tape and wood sticks and taped them tightly back together. Is there any chance for recovery or should I start digging a grave?

Plant structureWhat do you guys think of the structure of this plant? I removed all but 4 lowest nodes in early veg then LSTed those nodes and topped for two main colas. I also did some lollipopping and defoliation later on as this girl is bushy as heck. Did I mess up?

Stretch time period for Indica dominant hybridsHow long does the stretch last with Indica dominant hybrids? I understand this is dependent on genetics. I am just looking for a ball park figure. It's been so long since my last real grow I have lost the feel. If I remember correctly it is usually about 2 weeks.Week 9
