Hey all. I have a sativa thats been topped, and is 9wk into flower. She split right down the middle of stem, starting where i topped. I taped a splint thats holdin it up along with thin wire. I was wonderin if anyone knows of anything else i can do to help her out. Also u think she will make it 2-3 wk more flowerin? Still a noob but tryin to learn and hopefully be able to enjoy my surprise bagseed sativa. She took some abuse while i was on vacation plus i was underfeeding, lessons learned. Thx for reading and for any response.0605131126a.jpg0605131127a.jpg0605131127b.jpg

if you want to help it heal i would suggest splinting it up with something that retains moisture (people use moss in the gardening world i believe) with plastic/tape around it for a seal.

Whether it will pull through will be obvious, and the worse that could happen is you have to chop 1 bud early (when the branch dies)

Have you cut off all your fan leaves? :shock: or they fell off naturally? hard to tell how far along you are.

Im 9 wk into flower. Leaves have kept dying off from lack of nutes, so i take em off when dead.
I splinted with a bamboo skewer and electrical tape. U think i should cut piece of rockwool to cover it with and keep moist? Thx for the reply

nope. it will be fine.

It might even result in a burst of growth.

What happened to all the fan leaves?
