shop-vac in the grow room

so i watered a lil heavy today, and had to suck the water up. i didn't want excess humidity, 2x4 framing getting drenched, etc. i was standing there admiring one of my beauties and ssslllluuuupppp, (thats the noise the shop vac made) the shop vac gobbled a whole branch of one of my plants. chomped it up pretty good! (i wrangled it back!)anybody else do some funny shit like this, i mean not at first funny, but hitting the bong and laughing about it later funny?

o man...i bet you shit your pants when that happened...

ive snapped a branch before when i was moving pots around...I was so pissed off at myself

Wow that sucks even though it is a pretty funny way to destroy your plants.

Yeah actually I did it a couple weeks back lmao, the whole branch didn't go in, i'd say about half of it. When I pulled it out some of the leaves kinda got torn. A day or 2 after the torn leaves got a little brown where the injuries were and looked like it was spreading a little bit. So I cut those leaves off at the stem of the branch. Plant looks good now, no damaged leaves. Just keep an eye on it, if leaves look like they are getting ill remove them.

well i'm growing outside, so no shopvac for now, bbbbbbbuuuuuuuuummmmmmmppppppppppp. naw, im growing all over, any place i can!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! inside, outside, in between, up, down, sideways!

Dude that kinda thing happened to me on my first grow, I used the shopvac to suck up excess water from the trays my plants were in. One day I was stoned and was listening to music and dazed out while doing it, next thing you know slluurrppppp, I pulled the shopvac wand away from there and slluuurrrpp again It sucked I freaked lol, try to keep an eye on the area that got slurped though on both branches over a time of maybe a day or so the leaves that were left started turning brown and spreading. Ended up cutting the branches off so it wouldn't effect anymore of the plant so be careful!! (especially when smoking and gardening )

too funny! i knew wasn't the only one with a shop vac.
