LST slowly cutting my plant in half

Well I just want to know if anyone else has had this issue.
Most likely i think it will grow around it. My other girls have already done so, but this girl is actually almost in half at that joint area. I am nervous when it gets bigger that it will break off the major half of the plant.
I love LST and went a litlte crazy this time tying everything down trying to contain the entire thing in the circumference of the 5 gallon.

damn meant to put it under plant problems lol not newbie. too fucking high

i think itll be fine, but thats pretty rough. Ive had the same issue , but not from tying down just from tweaking and bending by hand. Itll recover if its strong enough

Shot o reckon if you cut off the strong and re tie it farther up that damaged part will become a massive knot.

It should heal just fine. Later in flower if it decides to give you trouble then wrap that bastard with duct tape.

I think it'll heal.. just give her some time. Good luck!

Next time don't tie it tight like that around the stem. I tie my LST strings loose, like a loop around the stem, not tight to it.

My buddy had an issue doing this-he tied it really tight around the bottom of the stalk. The plant started growing around the string, but the stem above and below it was fatter and bigger. In week 5 of flower he woke up to find the plant snapped at that point under it's own weight.

I would loosen that knot.

i agree with squid, you should cut it and retie at a safer place, it looks to me like its continually cutting into the stem and therefore wont heal until it rips it off!
i tend to just loop string over the stem i wanna bend and then fix the 2 ends to the pot, this makes it easier if you wanna extend or shorten it at a later point, and doesnt effect the plant at all.
