so a couple weeks ago my friend snapped a branch off a plant he was growing. 2 branches. they were only hanging on by a very little piece of outer plant skin. he twisty tied them back onto the main stalk and hoped they would somehow re attach themselves. check this out, anyone ever done it?

not only did they reattach themselves. the area exploded in thickness

Oh yea..Ive had that shit happen to me too, and I used duct tape! :lol: LMAO!!!

That Branch had the Biggest Cola outta the bunch! :weed:
 
I dropped a light on my plants at the end of veg . One of them snapped, I could not see the break but heard it and it was laying over. I tied it up and set it aside on the edge of the table where it got less light and moved a "healthy plant" to the other spot. The snapped plant made a full recovery, produced more than the other plants.
 
people do that with completely different strains, and splice them together. I've seen one MJ stalk with 5 different strains vegging on it! check out you tube for videos. but yea the MJ plant is amazing at healing and recovering.
 
its because your plants are producing more sugars and glucose to try to repair it and it makes the hole plant benifit from it try experimenting with this snap a branch or to c what happens

much love

i snapped a few of my branches a few weeks back experiementing with a kind of super cropping, i used clear tape on one cause it was broken real bad, but needless to say all the branches that snapped have grow back thicker than before with just a little copper color scar where the plant was broken, as for the rest of the plant it seemed like the borken part of the plant stimulated growth in the rest becuase by the time the snap was healed the rest of the plant was bushey

now just wait to see if u get bigger buds off that branch u broke ;)
 
lol, don't break them, that's unessisary stress, squeeze them all around the stalk at the same spot. I love super cropping. I also use scotch tape when I get bad splits just to help them out. Can't say I've broken any off but got some bad splits a few times. Makes 'em strong as hell.
 
So i just started my garden and i'm super cropping my tomato plants. Anyone ever tried it with anything other than cannabis?

I cant say that I have,

But "crusher" is my middle name...

Do it to all my plants the minute they can stand up on their own... sometimes twice.

Gets the nutes flowin!!! :weed:
 
Fuck .. I just did the same thign last night.,. I was trying LST on my biggest girl (2ft) and heard a snap and it laid at a 90 degree angle. out of fear i quickly used my orchid clips and and proped it about a 45 degree angle.. after reading this.. im thinkin i shoulda just left her alone.. aw well. ill post pics later to show wat i did.
 
Here they are.. they are inprogression. 1st pick was 2 days after i took off the splint. 2nd was yesterday and this last one is of this morning.. I was trying to make her short and she ended up getting taller.. wtf??? lol
