Dumb thing -What's yours?

[Canuck147]

Topped an OGKush and she grew out of control - right out of the tent - banished to 8 hours of sunshine a day cuz she grew to 5 feet.
Basically grew into 2 main colas - as I changed sticks that held her up I heard a crack and looked just to see both stems falling away from each other. I tied it back onto supporting stick then got whatever tape I could find right away. Used clear packing tape and then tied them together with string then again with string to the stick
Worked okay. Slowed down for a few days but the sunshine we are having here right now (July and August no rain) helped her along.
Smells great and is curing at the moment.

Glad to hear it work out for you in the end. Was wondering how far along was the plant when it happens and how big (long) the break was just curious if you don't mind me asking.

Current grow my big dumb thing: was snapping a main branch on my Power Africa x MK Ultra plant.

taped it up with black electrics immediately and supported it with a brace made from card stock and taped in place with duct tape.

the one side of the plant was severely stunted, and even now is easily 30% smaller than the other half of the manifold.

At harvest in 5 weeks we will see the weight difference in each half the plant.

The base trunk stem though is 2" thick if not more.

In the pic you can see it split right down the middle and would have gone down to the dirt level had I not grabbed them. She was over four feet tall. About five weeks old.

Always good to see pics - good save - and good post man.

When I get home from
Working at the club I'll take a pic of what it looks like now

Heh, I just split a main today myself. Morale of the story, take morning tremor meds before training plants....

This is the base of my PM1 plant. The one I snapped the right hand side off of when it was very young.

as you can see the main trunk is fat as fuck

The scar from the break is just to the right of the green tie
