Help I broke her

So I was feeding and bending my branches through the net today and I slipped and my thickest and fattest branch 3/4 snapped. I re tucked the branch so it’s holding the stem onto the plant but is it a lost cause? Should I clone it quickly? Will it heal itself if I leave it propped closed against the main stem? Trying to minimize my loss here

I did this myself recently. Similar anyways. Advice on here if you can find it in search is to tape it tight together with honey in the wound and it should be fine. Others more experienced may offer advice.

It will be fine. I have done that many many times and never even bother to repair it and 95% of the time it's just fine.

Zip ties don't eat into them?

Doesn't matter, they grow around it but you could just leave it on for a few weeks. or just do like I do and leave it split open, no problems. I have had branches split when training before flower, no repair made, and run the whole cycle without issue. So if you are worried use a zip tie, if not just let it be. Really the only reason to support it is to keep it from splitting more.

So glad I came across this I've snapped a couple of branches on one of my plants and needed reassuring it will be fine
