How to Fix a Broken Branch

Don’t sweat it! Breaking branches is a rite of passage in cannabis cultivation, and we STILL break branches to this day. In fact, that’s what happens when you are pushing the limits of how big your buds can be. 

A broken branch, while not ideal, will not take that much away from yield. Cannabis plants have very fast metabolisms, and they will channel energy to the branches that are left instead - reconstructing your plant in a way that will still produce lots of buds!

To fix a broken branch simply use some tape around the broken area, connecting both ends of the broken branch, and make sure that both sides of the broken tissue are touching.

You can add a drop of honey to help both sides “glue” back together. If your branch is heavy, make more rounds of tape until it provides enough structure, but not too much to squeeze the branch.

1 week later, your plant will be fully healed and you can remove the tape to allow your branch to continue growing.
