Snapped main stem.

[fakirr]

Three nights ago when i was bending my Main plant (Mary) i bent the main stock down, i came into the grow room the next morning and she had snapped. I then tied it up to a stake to relieve the stress and straighten the stock. Now its grown since (About an inch...) and there is no discolouring, its just around the part of the stock where it folded and bent over is brown instead of green.

Have i done any lasting damage?

Oh, BTW - i got 100% female from un-fem seeds - Happy as larry!

You will likely be just fine. No doubt it stressed the plant, but depending upon genetic stability, it will continue on just fine... poss stress to hermi with some girls.

The only issue that I would be concerned with is possible fungal infection near the cut/broken stem. THe browning is usual healing, but if it is soft, slimy, or with any odd colored growth (white,pink,black) then poss infection. You can rub the area down with alcohol and/or .5% h2o2 and/or physan 20 to disinfect area.

It should heal... done it b4 myself. Best.

Should be fine, I did it myself and everything looks good 3-4 days later.
