so it was my mama that was used for this summers clones went outside a few days ago to finish her life and my area got hit with harder weather than i was anticipating.... Looked outside and shes fell over pretty much in her own 60 gal pot... shes somewhat lopsided and about 4X4X4 im thinking just to much water weight sent her down anywhoooo all the damage seems to be at the base of the trunk after i staked her back up i cant see to far into the rootball to see the extent of the damage... anyone go through something like this? Shes really loose at her base and can be swayed back and forth from the base not sure if shes worth keeping anymore if shes not going to produce. anyone ran a fucked up plant like this before?

killing me.... she fell back over and i checked again her trunk is probably about 3 inches wide and looks to have split at the base inside the rootball a good amount..... my dumbass decided to run her in straight coco so the nutes and watering would be alot of time/money for a plant that isnt going to produce much..... anyone split trunk people out there have any adivce thanks sorry for all the rambling my all my gardens are going to shit right now and im a little worked up

Tape or something soft to wrap the trunk with is good. I use a powdered sulfur on trunk wounds when I thought there was a danger of stem rot. Sucks that she's flowering, yeah your harvest will be less on this one. These are remarkably resilient plants, sometimes though it is best to just move on and replace her or cut your losses. I would give her a week or so though, maybe some nutes for roots. Put a cage or several stakes to spread that weight out and get it off of the crown. Maybe water in some high trichoderma beneficials to help prevent rot as well. Basically if she isn't severed then she can recover as long as rot doesn't set in. Might lose some side branches if those roots are dead.
