I smashed the top of a female flowering plant my T5 light fixture hit it hard and crushed it, I tried to straighter out but I guess it was too much cause its like a wet noodle,I'm only two weeks into flower and I already fucked up

1 can I cut it below the lowest break

will it effect the plant good or bad

2 can I try to splint it or is it the top part of my plant done for DSC00030.jpgDSC00031.jpg

I wanted to try pipe cleaners but don't have any

leave it just like it is, there will be a big knot form at the bend and the tip should start bending upward in a couple of days.

It looks to me like it has just been bent badly(hopefully). If u got some duct tape wrap dat round da bend to hold it up should sort it out.

yes in answer to uksecret questions when I tried to straighter her out I heard a pop like when you have your back popped. then it went limp and the skin at both breaks looks bruised badly that why asked should I cut below the bad part or try and splint her with some thing not sure what to use for a splint

Leave it..just some cloning gel and tape if you like. Splints work. The more you mess with it the more damagd.

Do what coho said top/supercrop. If the skin broke I have found that it is very hard to save it just cut off what has broken. When new heads pop up top them aswell 2 times then u have saved her life and will still get a niceish yield.

don't want to sound like an ass superstoner but hasn't it all ready been pinched hard enough and bent ,its been bent two different times in different directions already, the light hitting it, then me fucking with it didn't help anything so if there is dead folage in the next couple of days I will have to cut below the dead section correct ???? my lights are off now I will check on her tomorrow

i wasnt saying to do anything else to it, i was referring to the method i like which is pinch and bend. and you would be surprised how resillsient these things can be. i have had some with clean breaks except for a little skin holding them on get bent the opposite way and heal fine. i would leave it alone and you will know tomorrow.
