support it as much as possible while trying to close that gap where it split. Use a stick and some ties, however you want to do it. As long as it didnt completely break off you might have a chance but this stress will most likely put a toll on the end result of that branch. But try to support and not F around with it too much and it'll form a knuckle there (fingers crossed)
 
Thanks for your response have it tied down with duct tape and some zip ties see if that will do it...again thanks

Yes I have that happen to me but it was one of the main stock all I did was tape it back and support it with a stick or something it works give it a try
 
cannabis is a very resiliant plant and will do all it can to survive so it should recover fine with your repairs and if it doesn't I would toss it(if u have made clones) after this grow because of lack of viguor unless you know for sure it is some killer smoke.
 
I split a bubble cheese plant at about that the same time flowering, fan leaves seem to be blocking the light from the new growth in the centre so I kept bending them down and 1 day it split about an inch an half, I taped it up and it did heal but found that it added an extra 2 to 3 weeks on to my flowering time if not more, whilst she focused on repairing herself
 
Thats a bad stem brake. Clearly the branch is too heavy for tape so you will have to put a stake (split one end) in the soil and support it up with a 'crutch'.
