I've done alor in the past but with partially broke branches. Hopefully this helps.yes doable. but it will need more veg time to recover from the damage. tape it up really tight at the break with a splint and add some aloe to the wound. 2-3 weeks at least
Lol,yeah it was complete break. I was thinking same thing as you but read online sometimes it can be saved but I doubted this info & also you can't believe everything you read online. I tried but it was lost cause,I pulled branch today. Sucks cuz this was my best plant. I should've started in veg,that's true too. I started lst like day before I flipped to flowering. I think the problem was I should've watered beforehand tho cuz I barely bent & it snappedmaybe i read incorrectly... if there is no fibres still connecting the break, its done most likely. complete breaks are now clones lol partial breaks were half the stalk is snapped can be repaired
Thx, I'll keep this in mind. This was my 1st time doing lst where you force plant into horizontal growth. I've done similar things in past where I've tied down big fan leaves so flower areas can get more light before I even knew what lst was,lol. But yeah I'm pretty new to lst & idea of tying down main stalk. You live & you learn right.helps to massage the stem part you want to train and get it all loose before you pull itnot too much pressure because it will cause a linear crack on the stem. good luck dude
Since broken stalk is lost cause should I still leave tape on so it acts as a band aid or take tape off?Thx, I'll keep this in mind.

I would leave it on just to keep anything from getting inside the stem although I’m mostly an outdoor grower and duct tape is my best friend.Since broken stalk is lost cause should I still leave tape on so it acts as a band aid or take tape off?
K,will do!I would leave it on just to keep anything from getting inside the stem although I’m mostly an outdoor grower and duct tape is my best friend.
Thx any ongoHey there, I just thought I would share a few fixes with you not trying be a know it all just had many breaks due to wind, lst hail etc. For partial breaks I like to use vinyl plant tape for mainstem breaks cord and wax makes a good seal and good ol duct tape hers a few of my bandaid fixes
Thx any n
*Thx,any info is welcome!Thx any ongo
I hope so,that's what I'm counting on since I f'd up,lol. I have had a spurt in growth recently so my area is pretty overtaken,that's why I was doing the lst to maximize space.You probably did yourself a favor whats left will go nuts .
