I accidentally just topped my 2 week old autoflower. Help?

[Blue_dreamer]

I was opening my tent and the door swung inwards and the zipper managed to rub against and decapitate my blue dream autoflower!

The bottom row of leaves are sad looking because I just watered and they were touching the dirt. So no worries about them.

Should I keep going with this thing? Or did I just screw everything up big time?

Hello you could carry on with it with a lot of training and topping but i would start again as its so young

Its topped so low you would get 2 or 4 maybe big branches? Accidents happen if you got more seeds I'd try again.

I top all the time, although I'd normally wait for for a couple more nodes first. I'd let it go for a few days and see if produces new branches. Unless you have a strict deadline or something what have you got to loose?

I'm going to try going with the manifold method on it, I guess

Since I already divided it near the base, what have I got to lose?

I just noticed that this plant is an auto. You probably won't be able to manifold as described in that article because of the time involved in recovery. With an auto, the clock is ticking. Lots of folks won't even top an auto because of this.

I think I would just let it go and do some LST on it.

Bugger , start again , you have not lost to much time .

I see you have other plants growing too.

I don't like to give up on anything, and I often learn something new by continuing to grow after incidents like this.

These plants are remarkably hardy, yours will recover. perhaps it will not produce as much as it could, but it will finish.
