Pics?

Sounds like you supercropped it by mistake. This early in flower you should be fine as long as it's not broken open really bad. As mentioned above, pics are needed for a good answer. Painters tape is good to wrap the break if it's bad.

It's fine, is there a break on the branch of it just bent? Looks like you are at 2 weeks 12/12, not 2 weeks flower.

Just for the future, try turning off the blurple light so we can see the plant better. White light shows up much better. I have blurple lights in my spare veg tent and I usually just take the plant out of the tent for pics.

Can't really see anything with the blurple on.

Do you have any fans on that plant? Looks like it skipped leg day.

That's much better, now I can see the color of the leaves which helps with diagnosis of issues. What power is the light, the actual watts used not what it claims? It looks like it didn't get enough light as the nodes are spaced really far apart and there are only 3 fingered leaves.

You ain't the first and you won't be the last to have that happen. I have a safety wire tied to my lights so if they fall it's only like 12" and can't hit the plant.

Doubt that damage will recover.

Yep. I'd chop that top off cleanly. Those brown spots don't look great either.

XTSHO has a better eye than I do and he's right, if the top part doesn't perk back up in a day or so, or it starts looking worse, I'd cut it just below the break and hope that topping it this far into flower doesn't effect you too much.

I've never had a damaged section wilt like that and recover. I litterally snapped a forming cola on a Hawaiian Cat Piss v3, left it alone and it's already healing up. No tie up, no tape, no wilted leaves.
