Rectum? Damn Near Killed Her!

Misanthropestarted grow question 3 years ago
Just noticed this split in the central stalk today. Plant is very healthy otherwise tho growth has slowed. The way it's healed over makes me think everything will be ok but this is my first grow and could use some expert input

wrap some twine around it so it can not split more and support the two half's it will be fine . when topping try to leave a little stem past the last two nodes for the plant to grow into . other wise over time you will end up with a bum and a split on the top . bigger plant bigger bum split will form . where branches meet is the weak part . careful to hold the branch before the main stock and slowly wiggle the bend point back and forth for easier better bends .

It will be fine, just don't put tape on it, this can cause "sweating", which can then lead to fungal attack. Place some sticks in the pot and tie the branches either side of the split to the sticks instead, this way the branches are braced against further splitting of the main stem and the wound/split stays dry and unattractive to fungus. It is a bit like in humans - after initial healing you have to take the bandage off and let the wound dry out to heal, otherwise infection can set in to attack an overly moist wound. Hope this helps, Organoman.

Don't worry, it will be ok! But tape it so it won't split anymore or support the branches so there won't be any tension on the splitted area

It will be ok!!! But, you have to tape that lady up so it doesnโ€™t split any more! Sometimes I do that in accident and will put a little clonex in the wound. Then tape it. In this case, just use some floral tape (or even electrical tape). Something that moves but can hold her together! It will be fine! Good luck! โœŒ๏ธ๐Ÿป๐Ÿ’š๐ŸŒฟ๐Ÿ’จ

I agree with the first poster. I would use a zap strap to hold it together from farther splitting. Just don't cinch it super tight so the stalk can grow. Best of luck the rest of the way.

Seems like she will be fine, for safety you should put strip around and tighten it up, so she wont split anymore๐Ÿ™‚๐ŸŒฑ๐Ÿ’š
