I feel like an idiot. I had a light reflector with 2 42 watt bults in it crash on top of my 2 best plants. I just put them into flower a week ago or so and dont know what to do.

The light came crashing down right in front of me and took out the main part of both bushes, they were doing so well!

What do I do? Are these going to hermie for sure now? I broke about 3-4 main branches off of each.

Did you clone your broken branches straight away? If it's not too long ago, do so.

My plants have had the occasional catastrophe and all turned out reasonably well.

Don't stress just yet, carry on as normal, but be aware your plants might take a few days to recover and heal the damage,
the strength it would have out into growing is now into healing as well.

Carry on, Regardless!

Good luck.

As long as the limbs did not break off it will recover very well readjust your lights accordingly and you should be ok.
I snap limbs all the time if they get to tall for my grow space'

I had the same thing happen to me once. It snapped off a couple of branches so I just cloned them. It didn't affect the plants much and in a couple of days they filled in and you couldn't even tell they had been damaged. Best of luck to you bro. bongsmilie

I just feel like I broke my kids arm or something. Shit. Heres pics, I guess Im about to mkae a shitload of clones. I guess I'll throw some superthrive in there too?

Im not positive but if you have already started your 12/12 regime you shouldnt use superthrive. The vitamins/minerals used in that slows or completely halts flower growth.

Again, Im not positive but pretty sure am correct. Any opinions?

Haha thanks for all the rep guys. I now have way too many plants and I guess I need to but another grow tent. I just made 10 clones out of my millisecond mistake. I wont put superthrive in with the flowering plants but the clones I put six drops to about a gallon of water and my reg Lucad Formula GH nutes to 700 ppm and ph is 5.7. I guess its good that the plants i crushed havent started flowering yet and I can just throw these clones back into veg. For all you guys using clamp lights and cfls....zip tie tose fuckers up bc they can do a tremendous amount of damage to a plant. I think the clones will be fine now but Im really worried about my 2 plants that were doing so well. I crushed the shit out of them as you can see in the pics and just dont want hermies as I have another plant in there that is far into flowering and dont want to ruin it as well.

Can a hermied plant have an affect on an almost finished female? Hope that makes sense?

It's gonna take it a while to sprout nanners if it's even going to happen at all. I wouldn't worry about it. Just keep a close eye on the plants that were damaged.
