Bent a branch... Will it survive?

Well I have a plant that I LST'd and the branches grew massively tall and they got too big for my space and were going to be burnt soon. So I have been tying the branches down, sort of LST-ing them (not for the branch growth though, for height issues.) and when I bent one that was slightly stiff (They are in the 3rd week of flowering so they're hardening, so I'm pretty scared about bending them too much now.) It just sort of bent the stem, I'm surprised it didn't snap, but it looked like it bent 90 degrees.

Will it survive?

Here is a pic, it's the one that I'm holding. It's a bad picture from my cell.

yeah even if u snapped it it still can survive if u tApe it within a half an hour so ur good to go dude!!!! remember ITS A WEED!!!

Yeah dawg, its hormones will redirect to the bent part and make it survive. you're good bro. There is a method of this called supercropping to create a more even canopy and more budsites. kinda like a lazy version of a scrog.

You can actually cut off every branch, switch them around, and tape them together without a problem. It's called grafting, and now you know

Good answers!

Holy shit. I took a few rips off the bong a bit ago, but that is fucking insane. I never knew that... That's pretty amazing. Thanks, you guys just took that worry away.

Oh yeah, I've heard about that. So could this in a way, actually help my baby? Or will it not help cause it's her 3rd week flowering?

The problem I was worried about was that the stem would kind of like have a kink in it and it would die. Glad that's not the case though!

Thanks!

It wont help, but it shouldn't do much damage. Just make sure to line it up correctly.

It will too help! If he bends the higher branches down, then he will get more even penetration into the canopy making for bigger buds.

I accidently suppercropped my main stem 3 weeks in to flower.. I left it at 90 degree angle and let it heal up. Worked perfect for my grow situation and now I'm in the 6th week and everything is dandy. Infact that plant still has the biggest cola..
