Just let it grow
It looks fine
Crank up that light
It needs more light

It was too tall before. Looks great.
Yea I got that lamp and also one in the center but u can't see it in the photo I'm thinking about getting a third one so with the main stem that broke off I cut some branches from it and put them in water to clone from the main stem so I got like 5 back up plan if the mother don't make it
Yeah I'd leave her in flower and keep going. Check out my post here:

I haven't done a journal in awhile and nothing in my grow has changed, until recently. I've decided this might be a hobby I'm sticking with. Yes, I'm commitment phobic. I also dislike change but here we go. I figure I can whine here while putting on a brave face as I demolish my upper story...

put stem back together and have it 100% touch, wrap in tape , put bamboo on stem and support it with green wire or tape.
key is to have that stem 100% contact , I’ve had even outdoor plants or indoor pants the ladder fall on em and if done within he’s those steps almost every time they survive and also that broken point will actually be stronger Aka high stress Training

The only thing to do with the broken off top if its still alive is to turn it into a cutting or several cuttings.
Edit : Sorry I wasn't paying attention to the further posts. Yes cuttings was the perfect thing to do.
It's a win win situation

Don't worry, bout a thing, cos every little thing's gonna be alright.
You're plant is going to bush out more and you will have more cuttings to make or more buds to make depending on what you are using that plant for. I know for blueberry its recommended to chop the top off it the plant to increase yield substantially. Topping doesn't increase yield for all strains but for some it can make a big difference. All that you have lost is the christmas tree shape, which doesn't matter.
