My cat ate from my 2 week old plant...

skrrr · Mar 17, 2020

Hi everyone,

My cat ate from one of the lowest leaves. Will this result in the branch carrying that leaf dying or will this not affect my plant after all?
Does this mean I will have a smaller yield?

I also posted a picture of the place where gender can be spotted, how long will it take to spot the gender? My plant is 12 days old.

Also, I do not mind getting some advice, it's my first plant

Regards

Your plant will continue on and that leaf wont have much affect on anything certainly not yield as your a long ways from flowering.

All good keep up the good work plant looks healthy

Just keep your cat away from your plant - your plant will be fine. It looks healthy , minus the bite. Just don’t let your cat near your plant.

not saying for one second your cat is dirty, but cats can carry all sorts in their fur which could be contaminated into your grow area/plants. You’d kick yourself if your otherwise healthy plant got struck down by a pest, which might have been transmitted from your cat being around the plants. Just saying. At this stage the leaves and plants will grow much much bigger, so honestly it’ll be fine

They will also get hairs in your buds when those arrive, keep the cat out and lint roll yourself or change clothes before you go in. Trust me on this one, it will save you some headache.

And also that's not your plant showing gender that is just the start of a new branch growing (node)
