It's nerve-wracking the firs time you do it. The plants bounce back. I snapped one once and the only thing holding it together was a tiny amount of skin. When I taped it with electrical tape, I thought for sure the flexing was causing that remaining connection to tear. I thought "this is a waste of time." But, it bounced back in a day or two, developed a *huge* knuckle where the damage was done, and the bud at the end of that branch was the largest. (Google about super-cropping. Some people beat the crap out of their plants because of seeing that kind of outcome. 
I don't go that far. But, they do take abuse.).
My only concern is that it's a little late in flower for this. You could hamper their growth. The stress might cause some seeds to develop. (That's not bad. I like to find a few seeds. More to grow!).
A close-up photo of the cracked branch would help. If it's just "succumbed" to your force and folded over, that's ok. If it really split, I tape over those to help them heal (a splint to prevent further flexing).
Normally you would do this rough stuff during stretch, early flower.

I hope they can bounce back and it will be fine. I am hoping it wont hurt them too much but I was concerned with the bleaching and I started to see some white spots on the early buds (shown in the current picture) but I hope this will fix it!
