Well I was attempting to spread a couple of branches on Gertrude by tying one of them down, and I guess I pulled a little too hard and almost ripped the branch completely off. :( I feel pretty bad about it. It's kinda like talking a shy chick into some crazy s&m shit, and then breaking one of her legs in the process haha. anyway, i think this branch is gonna die. should i go ahead and clip it off the rest of the way or leave it? There's still alot of new growth coming in, so I'm really not terribly worried about it. C.C has a new set of leaves coming in, and Natalie is slowly putting on a little height. I'll throw a few pics up later this evening.

HAHA!! Thats hilarious! You could think about cloning it? Its an option, is it a lower branch? Guess we'll see with pics. Usually they respond better after being tortured lol, I dropped my first one, and it stunted its growth for like a day then exploded.

Subbed in for the ride!

Dont feel bad brother...I did the same thing last week doing some LST on my plant. There will be more. I just took it off the rest of the way..next day it was healed up and the plant just kept on going.

If it's just split in half and still attached you can duct tape. Have seen many people do it, even the main stalk. If you pull it off it won't hurt anything, or like suggested above you could clone it. Either way no worries it happens to us all. It will not have any major affect so it's all good. I will be watching this thread bro. We'll compare buds at the end of the season :)

Well, 3 days ago I transplanted Gertrude into a bigger pot with screws around the top to make for easier LST...and some fresh soil. In the process, I broke off a good portion of her roots. haha. Her root mass was quite a bit bigger than I expected it to be. She seems to be fine, though and is putting out new growth every day. I also topped one of her tops again the day before the transplant, and that seems to be doing ok, too.
-C.C is doing well, too. She's putting on new leaves and her stem is thickening.
-Natalie still isn't doing much, haha I don't know what her deal is.
I took a few pics (with my junk phone again), I'll upload them after dinner to show the progress. I should have my camera back in a couple days, my buddy borrowed it about 2 months ago and I kinda forgot about it until i started this...he says he's bringing it back so I'll have some better pics after that.

Edit: Oh, that branch I snapped, I just went ahead and clipped it the rest of the way off. Its got some new growth coming in around that spot

Cool. Dinner is taking a little longer than I expected, so here's some pics.

At first I was worried about 3 bladed leaves..but all of the newer ones are 5 bladed, and it looks like some of the newest ones are 7. As always, these pics suck...but like I said they'll start getting better in a few days.
