Ok so it's my first grow and i have 3 plants, and put two of them into flower with the first 6 days ago.


Today upon inspection i noticed that my two newer plants are also female! But the pistils are still very very small was hard to spot out.

So I have used Uncle Ben's topping technique on one plant, because the other is a trifoliate and I wanted to see how it would turn out without topping it...

So my one plant had two beautiful main cola's growin and expandin until...

I had a 4 foot flourescent fall and land on it!... I am so mad, the face of this guy describes my reaction as im tossing the flourescent aside to check on my girl.




Also there are pics of the plant at the end of this post..


Edit: first picture, my roommate is holding the broken main cola where it used to be lol

I had that happen to me as well. If you can put it in water right away until you can put some rooting compound on it it will survive. I also know that putting duck tape on it will work as well if it is a tight seal and clean cut. Sucks that happened but if it is too late this time at least you know for next time you can fix it.

And by the way, put some water directly into the bottom main stalk and then put in a toothpick to seal it and the bottom portion will also grow. :)

dude that sucks, re-veg the bottom half and put the top half in water to see if it will root without suppliments

clone that shit... as for the plant it'll grow other stems, but you just added about 2-3 weeks to the veg cycle but it will act just like a topped plant

i agree with this, throw the top in water, she'll show roots in a couple weeks, assuming you didn't toss the top already.....

kinda got lucky there , your girl will heal and probably grow a few more buds after you re-veg for a couple weeks then flower again.
