That slimy bastard...

After several years of indoor growing, I decided to try some girls outdoors.

So... Never really had to deal with the elements much.

Yesterday I go to check on some, and a Blue Mystic from Nirvana (After growing a few generations of it indoors, it seems to me it isn't very hearty) was bent a bit.
The way this cutting grew, 2 large branches formed near the base.
The smaller of the 2 branches was bent, and I attributed it to a recent storm.
I grabbed a bamboo stake and a ziptie to remedy it.. but then I noticed it.
About a 2mm hole right at the bend.
I squeezed lightly and it felt pretty hollow and ate up.
I tore a bit away and then.. a 2 inch brown worm slithered out.

In retrospect I should have gotten a picture, but I was so incensed I sliced him up and tossed him/her.

Cut the branch off below the hole.. rest of the plant looks fine.

Its a Nirvana Blue Mystic in a 4 gallon pot. (I also have one in the ground [5 strains, 1 of each in ground and dirt]).
The one in the pot is about 4.5 feet.
The one in the ground is about the same height, but bushier.
