Broken branch

Needhelp146 · Jul 9, 2009

This might be a stupid question but here it goes. This is my first grow my plants are over 6 feet tall I found a branch broken off the stock about 20" long. The stock now has a boo boo do I need to treat it of will it heal on it's own?

Thanks

Well s happened too me 3 days ago, I kneeled down to check a plant and kinda sat on a lower branch from another plant. It cracked and was almost completely off. I tied some string around the branch and another branch above it together and it never wilted. been 3 days and I think it is completely healed. I'm going to leave my tie string around it though.

If your branch has been completly removed your stalk will heal itself in no time

take a straw cut it in half , take an old t skirt and cut a strip the length of shirt about a inch wide take straw and fit it around break and wrap strip around straw . helps if u have an ace bandage clamp 2 secure otherwise a piece of tape will do :hump:

I have fixed some tree branches by just holding it in place with string and taping it.
I think there is tape that flourists use that would work perfectly.

I think that would be grafting tape.

That would make sense.
I always wondered if you could take the part of one plant and graft it to another.
I have seen it done with pine trees before but never pot or any other small plant.
