At this point your only choice is to graft it, but you’ve switched to flower already and it looks like the break is starting to heal., so you can try and “clone” the whole main or cut off those branches and get a few strikes from her., while still trying to “clone” the main… ---

I would doctor where the stem broke off with some honey. I had a blueberry that kept streatching into my light, so I cut the top to stop. Put a dab of honey on, and it’s fine! It’s about a week from harvest, and it is doing great. ---

I am a first time grower and started some LST on my autos, pushed one plant to far down and she broke completely off. I didnt even notice at first, after 20 minutes i saw it and patched her up. Does she even have a chance to survive, she already looks dead ![20240813_144053](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/growingmarijuana/original/4X/0/b/5/0b58def9521767db381041106734485db736b79a.jpeg) ---
