Hard to say what you mean but I am guessing that you split the plant. You will survive. Get a twist tie on each of those branches a couple inches above the break and connect them leaving a little pressure on them. The plant will heal better than ever in a few days.

Thanks a ton man, will do!
 
Did that exact same thing. Taped it up and it did super good...might have actually helped.
 
Thanks guys, she isn't dead yet, I used twist ties and zip ties, I may go to tape though, seems less restricting
 
Along time ago, growing as a patient in ca, I dropped a decent sized fan onto a plant, breaking at least a couple,branches. It still did amazing! Good luck.
 
I remember one time i split a main stem 3 nodes down 4 weeks in flower(taped it back right away), the branches off the top split gave me the most heaviest nugs out of the other branches. I dont know why that happened and for some reason she didnt get stunted amd continued fattening daily. They can take some serious damage on the foliage. The roots not so much.
 
Thanks for all the help guys, she seems to be healing nicely(except for the Knicks I have her getting the zip ties off) dumb move in hindsight, but I think she will pull through:dunce: a couple pics to show off her battle wounds

NO TAPE! Just use twisties or string to hold it together a few days.

I can see why you wouldn't want to use tape because of the sticky residue, but seriously I have always used electric tape and it works great. Plus after the plant heals, it will grow and pull the tape apart and you can pull it off of the plant.
 
I used a zip ty at first, bad idea, hard to cut it off, the bread tie worked really well though, held firm enough to hold it together, but was easy to remove
 
Even worse my last grow i split an entire 2 foot long branch off. Wasnt able to tie it back. I let it heal in veg for another 2 1/2 weeks and it was just fine. Yielded well, bomb smoke (critical kush) and best of all no hermie. Itll definitely recover. Just baby it for a while.
