    Will this survive

    Broke a main branch and ducted tapped it will it survive

    #2
    I saw a video where someone broke a branch and put some clonex on the "wound" and taped it back together and it survived. It wasn't the main stem though.

    I hope it does! Keep us posted.

      Tape it tight with duct tape, zip tie or tie above and below the crack. If possible build a cast around it, twigs, chopsticks... to keep it from breaking anymore. Leave alone for a few weeks but you'll know within a day what you got cooking. If it survives, remove the whole apparatus in a few weeks but you'll be better judge. Good luck!

            sean tape it up good and dont worry about it I've broken many branches and if it didnt break off but still has some connecting tissue most of the time it will be fine if not it will be dead in a couple of days. its always a heart stopper though isn't it lol

                Matie it happened to me also,ripped half the mainline all the way to the main stem,18 days before chopping!I just twisty tied it together in 5 spots and let it be,didn't touch it till harvest! It was glued together and the buds/growth was fine all the way!! Clonex and duct should be sufficient...

                  This happens with me as well.
                  Just duct tape it- (I use red for injuries) and make certain the branches are supported.

                  Also, I stop moving the plants when it gets close to harvest.
                  I leave the duct tape on it for the remaining time.

                  Was this a node that was topped?
                  It's all bullshit - until you smoke it!
