superglue and snapped stems/branches

will super glue kill a plant if i had to use it to save a big branch from snapping completley? i pushed the parts back together then put a little bit all around the skin on the break point to hold it together. none shoulda been able to enter the inside. it broke right at the main stem but only about 50% was broke (clean break luckily. wait the right word is snapped). it was too close though to have any possible way to tape it up. and all i could come up with is what i did w/superglue cuz it was snapped where it is, the branch is/was still developing very very well b4 this and is growing very fast making tons of flowers and just plain exploding in growth so i dont wanna kill the branch and for sure dont wanna kill the plant,so i will remove it if i have to. any thoughts? would of the liquid skin stuff worked? did i poison her?

sounds like it'll be alright... just wait and see

thx for the reply, some more thoughts would be cool guys. i like to hear from a few different people before i act or make up my mind on stuff

what do you mean "before i act"??? havent you already glued it or whatever?? just be patient and wait and see... it WONT kill the plant; that branch may not make it, but i would bet on it surviving

It should be fine.You didn't poison it and it will probably heal stronger then before. Your cool.

I accidentally snapped my main branch on one of my plants one week into flowering. I duct taped it back together, and misted it a few times per day.

It healed, and the plant is now flowering fine. This is what it looks like after 8 days of healing.

i meant b4 i take the branch off or decide to leave it on w/the superglue like i have it.....i said it wrong, lol

i broke a branch before . i just tied the branch up and taped the wound and a week later she was healed again

i would of taped her but it wasnt possible cuz the branch broke right from the main stem, but only like halfway through

Did the superglue work?

lol, ok. thanx for the response. Take care

just use duct tape no need to super glue.

Do not use super glue for repairs the fumes will close off the pores and smother it to death

I snap them on purpose sometime as some are getting taller than others and come closer to a light. When it happens I just pinch a stem hard(not twist, just pinch hard) and bend it 90 degrees so it goes horizontally.

And you know what the top part of a snapped stem is always coming back.

If you do not have anything for a snapped branch to lay on and stay horizontally then may be just put some support from the bottom to keep it that way. I just have a scrog below so I do not add any support.

Never did meth. post was really old and no one answered the question. I made the mistake as a novice and don’t want anyone else to make that mistake it could be an accident like that that completely destroys a unique strain forever. for those that are still protecting strains that have been cared for and breed for generations it could be devastating novice mistake.

I have actually had great success applying aloe and wrapping in gauze. I like the gauze because it isnt air and light tight like tapes.

Cheers

You're still wrong but few would use it anyway. The mechanism you describe doesn't occur.
