Day 37 - Main Stem Split in Half on Manifolded Plant: Is the Plant Salvageable?

GardenSchoolstarted grow question 4 years ago

The stem on one of my manifolded plants has split in half at the base. I tried to salvage the stem by using garden tie knot with a zip tie to bring the halves back together. Is this going to kill the plant or is this plant salvageable? Thank you for your advice.

Yeah this happens, tie it up abd wait a week, it should have "healed" or hardened up within this time🌱👍

My plant had the same problem, I did something like that and it worked, in a couple weeks she's fine. Maybe you have exaggerated a little 😂

Last week a couple of stems were going soft mid stem and becoming paper thin. Leaves all looked healthy. I think it was maybe a sign of over watering? Seems to be ok now but stunted the plant for about 5 days give or take. Would just like a rough idea to the causes.

Accidental stem bend 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?

Are they on time?Hi there! What do you think about my plants? It's my first grow and I have no idea if they are doing good or are too slow to be at the end of the fourth week. Does it mean starting from tomorrow they are already in flowering time? Thanks! Cheers
