How could I improve recovery chances of a broken/folded seedling stem?
noobiiistarted grow question 5y ago
My light accidentally fell on my seedling and broke the stem right below the first set of leafs. The stem, however, did not break in half but it folded over. I have added support to keep it straight. Is there anything else I could do to improve her chances of recovery?

Looks great honestly I can’t even tell anything happened to it.
I’d bet she’ll make it just fine. If it’s still looking good 24-48 after the accident - you’re in good shape and no need to worry

I think what you did is good. Sprouts that small are pretty fragile so it's up to Mother Nature now.

You look like you did a great job already!
At this size it’s kinda hard, you need her to grow a bit more sturdy. If she was bigger I’d recommend tape, but at her size, looks like you are moving in the right direction. 🌱

Main Stem Split On Two Strains In Same EnvironmentMain stock split for no apparent reason?? anyone had this happen with minimal to no stress on the side branches?? Wondering if I topped too low or should have tried to leave more stem from the last node. Growing hard and she just splits, I have seen this bending branches...😀👍🙏

Any ideas what happened hereHey any idea what happened here? I thought it was too much light but the stem is brown like it's dieing. It's the only spot on the plant and the only stalks that are taller than the rest.

Weak StemI watered today with my sprayer & one of my plants fell over, is this damping off or am I supposed to prop it up somehow? The other ones are fine.

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?

¿¿Que debería hacerle a la planta ??They're getting stems at the bottom but they're not getting light because the plant has four big leaves that cover the whole plant. Do you think I should remove the 4 leaves and open up the plant from the bottom or cut the stems at the bottom and focus only on the top part? I did FIM. THX
