ok now guys ive got a story which hurts just to tell for me now lol

so i was cutting a few groves in the stem to get few more branches happenin and anyway...i sorta slipped....on all 3 cuts lol :s

came back a few hours later and already noticed some differences, especilly the top, had started to fall and wasnt looking good at all.

so i just finished, found some cotton like bandage stuff which is breathable, wrapped it round the cuts tying them down to stake to hold it up. then got some wire to help spread the leaves a bit, especially at the top, since thats worst. i wet the bandage before and then got a spray bottle added some water and just a little bit of nuts and sprayed it onto the poor thing, now its back into its home with the lights on.

did i do the right thing? what are the chances? what else can i do? if by tomorrow its still not looking good should i try and clone or get rid of the top.

its my first ever grow and was pretty impressed with it and a female lol :(

please help lol

On the bright side; At least it wasn't a trophy plant you killed

What won't kill it will only make it stronger. Learn the lesson, branches don't come out of cuts in the stalk, lol :P

It should be fine provided it doesn't get an infection. Take the wool off, moisture and cut stem = perfect environment for fungal growth. Use a splint to support it. A few toothpicks tied parallel to the stem will be fine.

VERY TRUE.

ok well i woke up this morning and it still wasn't looking any better. Bottom wasn't to bad but top was still bad so ive now taken it out into the sun and used toothpicks to splint the cuts and wire to hold it up and spread the leaves again. ive sprayed the solution onto the plant gain and made sure the cuts are wet so hopefully it should improve ...

bump..... need help guys, its really not looking good, i know its not going to happen instantly but its not looking good at all, is their anything i can do to save it? the cuts are quite big, big enough to make the plant fall over not that its a very thick plant but yeah.

lol bugger off olishell, dont like negative people. im just having some fun, never done it before.
ok so this is my last hope, nice sunny warm day out side so ive got straws put them around the cuts, taped them up to keep its firm and tight, keeping a lot of moisture on the cuts and the whole plant and now its sitting out in the sun, hopefully fixing itself.

You might consider making a clone from the top. If you can get it to live then you have made two plants from one. But you might want to do a little research before attempting cloning.
