so i call myself pruning my mother, and right when i close the shears my cell phone rings and i jumped as i did not want it to wake my baby...i cut her like bushido.http://i198.photobucket.com/albums/aa155/boogerman305/1181687183.jpg the end result, a 6 inch sling via twig and clear packing tape. i misted her right after, plain h20. then put a little 4inch fan directly on the wound area. also turned towards overhead light, is she headed towards recovery?? is the branch good?

why are you worried... unless you cut it at the very bottom above the soil, i will grow out from everywhere else, it's O.K. man.

Yeah all you have really done is to top the plant so now two or more shoots will grow. It's all gd

none taken, to be quite honest shes had at least a 4inch fan on her every since i brought her indoors may 9th, $hyt i was scared at first that i was gone blow it over and kill er. now her stem is thick like a double A battery(slightly thicker) standing @ 2 ft. the branch was not severed , but it still stands and is not drooping, hopefully this band aid works on her. not worried but ive never physically repaired a plant like i have done so, wanted to make sure i was on the right track.

I snapped my plant in 1/2 midway thro flowering, just taped a support round it and it grew back double the original size and strength. Isn't there some kind of training to do that. Squeeze the stem and it grows double the size so can take more nutes to the cola
