So i was trying LST and i must have bent one of the main growing tips back too far or whatever but the stalk now has a half inch split in the top, I loosened the ties and tried to push the stalk back together with plant wire...

Its showing no symptoms of dieing or whatever in the leaf, but i dunno whats gonna happen, Please help me!

A freind of mine knows guy whos dad cut down his plant completely because he needed the soil to grow some vegetables or something, however the guy simply taped it together and it finally grew together again... i dont think ures wil be much worse.. just make sure the crack is somehow sealed or atleast not opened.

As soon as you said the leaves were not drooping I knew it was ok.
yes you did the right thing. good for you.

Here's a pick showing just how resilient these plants can be when healthy.
