Dab with some honey and wrap to stabilize. You should be good.

Ooof. Not what you want to have happen on an auto. @ChittyChittyBangin is correct. Either aloe or honey.

What would be good to wrap it with?

Any type of plant tape will do or if in a pinch old skool it with a few poles and a cloth bandage. All youre trying to do is stabilize, she will heal on her own. Might put youba week behing harvest , but she will survive

First grow I broke the main stem of my biggest plant right above the first node. Couldn’t really wrap it like I needed to so it was basically just propped up with four chopsticks. Stunted her a bit but ended up being the best yielder for that grow. It was a zkittles auto. I think autos are tougher than what they get credit for.

I did the same thing to my critical and broke her main. She’s doing fine and thriving. It snapped completely off and wasn’t repairable. I was nervous about it as well but she bounced back and is doing swell!!

I broke the main stem. Wrapped it in duct tape and it was fine.

All others are doing just fine. Just hit flower a couple days ago. It just redistributed its energy to other sites. Being this early in your grow. I would think you’d be okay. Don’t fret brother. These girls are more resilient than you think! Keep ‘em green buddy. You’re doing great!

Mine was so snapped and so close to the crotch I couldn’t repair it. I tried hard and was kind of wigging a bit. My mentor and buddy @Graysin eased my mind. (Thank you for that!!)

As we often do when our babies are hurt, I think. I’m glad yours turned out exactly like I said. :sunglasses:

But absolutely true words - we freak out, but honestly she’ll be A-OK even if the growth that got snapped dies off. There’s sufficient growth on your gal below the damage @Mr67 to be just fine without it.

As Jonesy said, she will just redistribute her energy into the other branches.
