MuppetMan1989 · May 20, 2010

Hey man, she looks nice! My beans were here in less than a week every time I ordered from him. The autos I got were a brand new release called Short Stuff's Auto Assassin. I'll let you know if they sprout.

I know! I saw her sitting there, I figured if i have one already in 12/12 might as well get one in the stages ready for flowering. I'll post more pics later tonite. Ya def let me know how that grow turns out! I wanna get some auto flowering to cut the time down. =]

MuppetMan1989 · May 20, 2010

I got bored , Just burned me a nice bowl. thought I'd upload some more pics of my baby. :joint:

tiedyediva · May 21, 2010

One of the autos is starting to sprout! I can just barely see its little stem trying to lift its little head out of the rockwool! Now, if only it turns out female...

MuppetMan1989 · May 21, 2010

haha. so my fan decided to fall on the plant and break it from the stem... is there a way to save it?

I got the beans as freebies, so I didn't get a choice whether I wanted fem or not. But now they have both sprouted and are looking good. As long as you taped your branch back up there is a good chance it will live. It just depends on how badly the plant was damaged. Good Luck with that!

Can you post a pic of the damage. It would be easier for us to tell you if she is worth saving or not. If its a supporting branch they yes you can save it.
If it happens to be the main stem it depends on where the break is. Im guessing it didnt completely sever off. If its high up on the main stem you can cut ur losses and save the plant. If its close to where the stem meets the dirt then she is a goner. I am truely sorry for your misfortune. I have had lights fall on my plants before but never a fan. Lights falling on plants can be devestating. Luckly i heard it fall while i was at home and was able to save her. I hope you can save ur plant. Thats a good looking clone.

Peace and positive energy to you.

Thanks, Ya she got chopped by the stem closest to the dirt, I tried to revive her but she died an hour later

I just recently got bubba kush x og kush and black domina clones. I'll post pics of clones later on tonite, So far they seem to be doing great after transplant to soil. We will see what happens next....

That is truly unfortunate. However it was good that it happened so early in ur grow op. It would have really been horrible if it was just barely into flowering or during full on veg.
