Split stem

[Minime2020]

Has anyone done this before.
I was lst ing and while rolling the main stem and bending it split, the split is in the picture and it's about 40mm long

Hopefully she will recover but didn't know if there is anything I can do to help the poor girl,
I used soft wire to bind the stem together

She'll probably recover. Just wrap it with tape and she'll be fine. She'd probably be fine if you didn't do anything but the split could grow and you don't want that.

I'm certain it will recover. I've done worse damage than that to a branch(where it connects to the main stalk) and it healed up nice and continued to produce bud.

I did the same thing a few weeks ago. Put on a little tape. No harm at all.

you will be fine and if I'm honest sometimes it sends a crazy growth spurt also if you ever totally break the skin bad as the other folks said tape it the best you can

That happens with most of my plants I train…..I don’t even give it a thought anymore….she heals herself within a week or so every time…. I don’t even tape it anymore lol. Like Tom said, sometimes she really goes for it after the fact.

No harm, no foul.
