I have a plant 3 weeks into flower that i had topped. it looks exactly like a Y. If you can imagine, i accidently split the middle of the stalk a good 2-3" down the middle of the Y :wall::wall:

I used some floss to tie it back together. I know these plants are amazing at healing injuries like this but im hoping this doesnt stress the plant out enough to cause it to herm. what are my chances?

anyone have any expierience with this?
 
It probably won't herm, it'll just slow down production while it heals. Plant's herming is a difficult thing to pull off, I consider it like, a growing Urban Legend because it really depends on the strain more so then how you treat it.
 
i know if you bend a branch, it heals and the buds become more dense and nicer. Perhaps by a longshot the 2 colas will have the same effect with this split? just a thought:rolleyes:
 
I'd pull it back together and tie it off. You could try some of the grafting methods too. It's probably going to be ok. i wouldn't leave it hanging open though.
 
Thanks guys. I tied it off with some dental floss cause i couldnt find any tape. I don't mind her taking a bit longer to heal, as long as she gives me good yield.
