Itʻs okay man the plant loves you even more for saving itʻs branches. Itʻll make sure the high is extra special for you lol.

She's a good girl, and it's amazing how fast broken branches begin to mend. If only human bones mended that fast, I'd start skateboarding again.

And that's no garden gnome; it's a garden rat. But what can I do?

So shortly after those pictures were taken the decision was made that she's getting a bit too tall for the yard, and needs to be tied down. And so I went and got a roll of that green strapping they use for tying plants and new trees, pulled out some tent stakes, and started to gently bend her over (that sounds dirty..).

Anyway, that night, ended up with this dumb broad in the back yard that wanted to pick tomatoes and strawberrys. "Just be careful and watch out for those straps" I say. "Oh yeah, no problem, I see them" she says. Thirty seconds later I hear "oh shit, oops oops" and then the crunchy SNAP of one of the main stalks breaking off down near the bottom.

I immediately ran and grabbed the roll of strapping and a flashlight, and then had the stupid bitch hold the branch in place while I mended it. And then I kicked her the fuck out of the back yard.

24 hours later and all seems well; whole plant looks healthy and vigorous, including the broken and mending limb. But shit, I just didn't need that.

I'll post some pics of the wound tomorrow.
Sorry to hear that. Probably why you can only go out back and stay on patio do not go in garden I will do it. Well can't wait to see the pics she will be fine. Dirrtyd

I have one of those. A marvel in the kitchen and a disaster in the garden.

On some of the many occasions when large branches broke due to rain, wind or weight, there was some initial wilting. Misting the entire branch frequently gave it enough moisture to remain healthy, until healed.

This was no spouse or girlfriend. It was my buddy's roommate. She's restricted to the patio next time she's around.

man wtf im about 10 minutes north east of sac and my shit hasnt started yet =/ my shits gonna get too big
only a couple strains of mine are budding... id say 90% of mine are still growing. so dont stress, they will bud when its time. but if they still arent budding in a couple weeks just make sure that there isnt any flood light like that around them. but if there are no lights around then just sit tight and roll one up while u wait...

Skinny is starting to flower. Abby is still vegging but looks real close to starting. She's also healing nicely.
