Never to me but you will be fine just veg lil longer and it will be like it never happened.

Sucks dude, haven't had it happen to myself.

You should secure everything more carefully so you don't burn your place down.

Your plants should recover in time.

Ringsixty · Jan 28, 2012

Lucky you caught the problem.... clip, clip and then add a couple of weeks more to your veg....it's all good.

warrengjustice747 · Jan 28, 2012

its funny, i JUST switched the bulbs to flower and 12/12. like this morning. should i change them back?
i secured everything really tight. NEVER EVER AGAIN.

Ooooh that sux man, but like the other guys said just clean up the toasted foliage and veg her back to health. Maybe throw the tape in the garbage and use something a little more reliable this time haha! Hope she comes back for ya..good luck!

Dont beat yourself up too much.

Shit happens, but in the end it wont really fuck you up. Just take it as a learning lesson.

No problem, they'll be fine. This is why a lot of people use chains.
