Wow you really screwed yourself their. I mean theres nothing you can do except let it grow out, unless you wanna cut it now again before its put into to much shock, take off all the way down to the next node. Your plant may not grow for a day or too, but it will live. You might wanna put something to cover where you cut so the stem does not get an inner infection. Its up to you to do the last step, you might herm the plant out, but its a good test to see what would happen I think ahah.

Ok well if i let it grow i could just FIM my plant would that do any better or should i just take the chance and re top , And i was thinking of possibly scrOG`ing so it could work out right?? oh and BTW i forgot to mention that it has been 24 hours before i took the pictures. Thanks for the fast reply too!

If its 24 hours past then there is nothing you can do. just let it grow out and top it once it grows out a bit bigger so it still has two tops and not just one weird one.

Meaning do not go and cut it where i told you. Cut it where the top is already coming out, meaning top your only last top once it gets longer. lol hope this helps.

that looks like you fukcd up FIM .. LOL :)

I would just let if be and see what happens .. mostlikely them two lower shoots will grow up fast and become new main tops .. the top will mostlikely also try to stay at top .. might work out so you end up with 3 main colas ..

I FIM mine and I got 4 new tops + them 2 lower once who grew up .. so I ended up with 6 tops ..

leave it and see .. you can allways top her agin later on (many do top twise or even 3 times doing Veg) just give it a few days to start growing agin and then see what happens and if you want to try agin in a few weeks ?

I don't see what the big deal is. The plant will be fine. I accidentally ripped off a whole branch of one of my Fast Nevilles a couple of weeks ago. Now you can't even tell it was ever there. It just sent out more shoots.

Free fimming!!! Hahah its no big deal, i snapped one of those off while placing screen over my crop too late once and the plant i jacked up yielded quite well dare i say kind of oddly better. If you were about to flower just wait 1-2 weeks

Like some others have said....just let it grow out of it. These plants can take a lot of abuse. They have adapted methods to deal with things like getting chewed by animals or insects....or humans. ;)
