Hi all.
Iv planted a seed just for the fun of it and to see how it will grow so im a beginner at this and im trying out diffrent tips and tricks.
I havent topped the plant at the veg stage so it grew taller and taller, now its almost 1m tal and
I saw some videos on how to tie it down but that didnt work because the plant almost "cracked".
I searched some more and saw that I could supercrop it, wachted some tutorials on how to do it, wached some more, I did it, and now I think im fuc*ed, here are some pictures of how it looks like and could someone please tell me if the plant is going to survive or not. At the top, I didnt hear any "crack" it just fell down and there was like a drop of "watering" stuff that came out from the bend where I cracked it, but the leaves to the left and right side did crack and those are Ok I think. She is about 1 month and 1 week old, she's been floworing for about a week now, and its a easyryder auto fem if that info will help you to give me a more correct answer.

So Will it survive or is it game over ? :p

I'd give her 24 hours then .
Don't worry though; it's incredible how they bounce back
There's photos of my supercropping in my journal, they looked pretty sad for a few hours as well :)
Main thing is; don't mess with her now...

Ok so if they still look bad after 24h what then ? :p should I cut the top of then or is the whole plant dead? :/

I grow outdoors and have not tried it on a plant so young, but on more robust plants I've bent them to that extreme a couple of times and they came back with no problem. I've got one right now that after not quite as drastic a bend as yours, has now nearly completely straightened itself up and if not for the swelling at the wound site, you'd never know.

Grafting one or more branches of different strains on to the one root stock. So, theoretically, one branch White Widow another Cheese etc etc.
Still in research mode at the moment though :)

I super crop the shit out of my outdoor plants. You can all most break a limb off completely and they will still grow super!

Looks good. If you ever break the branch just put some tape around it.
So now iv taped it, only the duct tape didn't work so I had to use my imagination to make it stretch upwards and this is how it looks now :D.

What do you guys think. Is it OK. Should I do something more or change anything?

Leave it hang you only tape them when you break the stem (bust it open) (a bit like a plaster on a cut) it will lay for a bit then it will start to curl up to the sun (lights) and form a solid knuckle when you supercropped it. Resulting in new branches and a fuller crop.
If you have split cut it then no that won't do it must be wrapped with tape like a plaster.
