Damaged top cola

As I’m getting closer to harvest, my paranoia is naturally increasing. I decided yesterday that I should fly my drone above my small grow site to get a better idea what it looks like from the air. My logic was that I might need to camouflage it a little better. As my luck would have it the drone lost connection and crashed right on one of my girls chopping up her top bud. The affected area is turning brown. My question is should I cut the top off to avoid any problem or just let it ride? I’m about four weeks from harvest.

The stranger than fiction stories! You try to keep a good watch and damage one in the process...let it go no biggie, like a deer got one.

If you're worried about your plant being bothered keep it simple and wire an electric fence around it, I read tht old car batteries work great.

I’m more concerned about being spotted from the air. With just four small outdoor plants I’m sure I have nothing to worry about but paranoia ya know. Gets me every year when I’m in flowering.

Looks like brown mold in the photo, or is it just from the damage I dunno, pictures can be deceiving...

A car battery won’t run an electric fence zapper for long. If you can find one to run on 12vDC

Hooking a car battery directly to a fence won’t do anything but heat the fence up.

Even if you did hook up an electric fence, it will only draw attention and protect from animals. Have you ever been zapped by one? It just hurts. Then they wait between zaps and kick the fucking thing down. Electric fences will never stop a ripper.

If you're in a decriminalized state you dont have anything to worry about. would be a waste of resources for 4 plants. Don't put up a fence or booby trap. Thats more noticeable from the air than your plants.

Far from decriminalized here in Tennessee. I wouldn’t even consider booby traps because I’m not worried about someone stealing them. Got a fence up just to keep the critters out but it’s well camouflaged. The odds of my drone just falling out of the air and landing on one of my girls has got to be low but that’s my luck. It was actually pretty cool seeing them from that perspective but I ain’t about to chance it again.

Smart all around. I ran my P4 Pro props into the side of the house trying to show off my grow, because I’m an idiot. It happens.
