aright after frying my plants and gaining some hope for them something went wrong in my closet and a shelf collapsed basicly splitting my one of the plants in half right down the main stem..i kind of took some bio degrtable twine and strung it back together,please someone tell me there going to be ok..with all the damn stress ive put these things thru i feel like there just going to curl up and die!!..i know they bounce back pretty well,but everything has a breaking point..i have a pic here the best i could i show.
the twine is tied around the top of the split,it split about an inch down along the stem,will she be okay??? this grow has been nothing but a load of stress on me,please some one re assure me they will be ok..and dont lie,if shes ruined save me the time and headache of trying to grow them healthy and strong again.any insight is greatly appreciated

She should be fine.. I had a plant outdoor snap in half and still made it threw, it was short and took a few weeks to heal

Yeah, I had one snap in half once too, about 4 weeks into bloom. I literally cried. But I took scotch tape and rigged her back up. It was like nothing ever happened. Since yours is split, I dunno if that will affect to top buds, but I would think she'll survive.

LOL. Dude, I did pretty much the same thing about 7 weeks ago to one of my girls. It was the best thing that could've happened!!!! Sort of an unintentional topping/LST. I lost the entire top 14 inches of this plant, but now she's by far going to be my best producer on this grow because all of the lower growth took off after that happened and now I've got a serious bush about 28" tall with a BUNCH (15 or 16) of really nice mini-colas, all about 4-6" long each at this point (probably have another 3+ weeks until harvest), plus a bunch of popcorn!!

MJ is incredibly tough and it's pretty difficult to stress one so bad that it quits on you (unless you kill it with too much water/nutes that is!) I'm betting yours will be just fine!!!!

I'm pretty sure she'll be ok. What's more is that you just might find that this will increase the yield of bud you get.

so the outside of the stem was/is all still intact or it got literally ripped into 2? im assuming it was still connected in my advice-get some gauze and some decent tape, now just hold it back in place where it was and wrap some gauze around the break, wrap tape around the gauze.......problem solved. 1-2 weeks later snip the tape and peel off the gauze. your stem is gonna get really thick from this.......

like one of the 2 main tops peeled off the main stem. it was totaly hanging off the side,like in the dirt..so i held it in place and tied it with some bio degratable garden twine..think that will be just the same as what your saying?

These plants are weeds and grow as such... they are resilient as hell I've found after dropping my light on a few guys. All in a split second I had a 1k hood on 3 plants, an 8 inch centrifugal fan acting as a vaccum sucking up my plants (and a little bit of my finger.... what happens when you smoke blood???), and it turned on my RO water flooding my room. I understand the wanting to give up, haha, and you feel like the biggest dumbass, or at least I did. But the only way I truly learn is the hard way. I saved a few Cola's due to taping them up a bit and in a week or two they are stronger than ever...

Good luck friend
