My plant fell over!

So I was about to turn the lights off for my plants and I noticed my super silver haze's stalk fell over. The stalk was still connected to the plant and wasn't completely snapped off. I had this happen before to 1 of my plants but the stalk was cracked in half completely so I couldn't do anything about it.. But I put a straight stick right next to it in the pot and tied it up to it. And its about 3 weeks into flower. Please let me know if the top half will survive or not. :-(

it should. if some of the plants stems are kinda small compared to how big the plants are i'd stake em up just to be safe. when it happened in the past you could of just pushed it back together and taped it up probably. you'd be surprised what they can survive.

Okay, good. The first one was kinda confusing, like the only thing holding on the stalk was the bark, and the important stuff inside was snapped. its hard to explain. but i just tore the stalk off of the first one and had 1 little teeny branch and i left it outside and its HUGE now. lol. but yeah, i got it zip tied to a wood stake right next to it, so from what you said, it should be fine. I'm sure it will show how its doing in the morning.

Put a little duct tape around it so light doesn't hit the wound she might be good......like he said time will tell.

for your next grow use dyna grow pro tekt
its a silicate that helps your plant produce hardier stocks and helps with over or under watering and even extream heats its a must al the way through your grow till the last 2 week of flower

Nearly the same thing happened to me. I had elec tape on the bottom part where the actual split was and took it off after 4-5 days. I still have the tape holding the 2 halves together. She is 6 weeks in flower and she has been holding up well the last 10 days. So you still have hope even if your yield my go down.

Something to remember, she won't be drinking as much water now and she will be more sensitive to the light/heat.

Okay thanks a lot guys, I'll tape it where it cracked. and i'll try dyna grow next grow. I'm using miracle grow bloom booster on this one though. and my ssh fell over because there were a lot more heavy buds on one side of the plant then the other, and I thought it could handle itself and handle the weight but it didn't. The stock was actually pretty thick for its size. lol.
