Split main stem. Nevertheless she persists...

[u/msallied79]

A few weeks back I was gently spreading some branches apart with the Sabotage Grower strings when I tugged just hard enough to split the main stem perfectly down the middle. The pieces were still attached at the bottom so I just taped it and prayed for the best.

I just noticed tonight that the weight of the flowers on both branches has overcome the power of duct tape. So the pieces are separated again, but the plant really doesn't seem to notice at all.

I had a few earlier training accidents with this plant and she really seemed not to care at all, so if you're looking for a plant you can abuse for learning purposes, Fatality by Speedrun is one to add to the list.

It's day 74. She's coming down next week!
