MAIN STEM BROKEN
Bottedefoinstarted grow question 3 years ago
Broke my stem doing LST last week
Tried to put it back together but when I came back to see them yesterday the ridge was even bigger. Will they survive eventually?
I put some rocks under the main branches to support them. Plant seems to be doing fine.

Just leave it like it is, your plant will be fine and will not need any sort of bandage or other "remedies".
She will grow and flower just like normal and without ant ill affects.
It is best to let air get to it and dry it out, bandages can cause excess moisture underneath them and then cause problems with fungal or mould attacks.
Wrapping wire or zip ties, can over time, strangle the stem as it grows and kill the plant.
This split will not cause any reduction in yield, growth or potency.
Hope this helps, Organoman.

Use some surgical tape, the stuff that hospitals use to tape stuff up with. It's breathable and it stretches, only a few quid in supermarket. Just don't force the split shut if its been a week and just tape it up so it won't split anymore.

Wrap that sucker in electrical tape and you're good to go. Electrical tape stretches for when the stem grows bigger.

Will this tape repair a broken stem?Should I re-wrap this broken stem? Bent with too much pressure and there was a snap, though not completely severed. I applied two or three layers of duct tape, not sure if the constant pull of ties will allow it to heal and repair. When should I take the tape off?
