As you may or may not have read my plants suffered from being not watered for a day.
Well, the tops of the main stem had wilted over, one pulled through, the other stayed bent, dried up and went crispy.
I got really pi**ed off with it last night and cut through the main stem, chopping the main head off. Just above the side branches.
Will it eventually split, and grow 2 heads?
Have I cut it in the right place?
What are the chances of it surviving?
Cheers

What are the chances of it surviving? you have just put more stress on the plant. i recon it will be OK tho

If things went crispy then chopping them cant hurt them anymore than already have? Expect a poor yield and dont do it again

Generally what you`ve done is called 'topping' - Good way to limit vertical height..
We burnt the top of a plant (seriously) and just nipped off the damage.. it naturally grows in 2 then..

No. They're a month in veg. I was just planning to stick em 12/12 just before this happened, probably gonna veg for another month or so let em recover.
