Recovery after snapping main stem

Is there anything I can do to help with the recovery and yield of my auto after snapping the main stem during LST? I didn't tape it in time so that's not an option

It's hard to tell from your pictures, but did the stem actually break? If its just bent a little bit, I think it should bounce back. If it's actually broken, you could try treating it like a cutting. Lot's of different points of view on that, but MIGHT work. I had a few plants "top" themselves after week 2-3, the top leaf set just died. Two new ones came back and now they're my biggest ones. Don't give up!

hi friend usually would trytape it but as not an option,if is not dying then is trying to repare i would say prop up so plant dosent have to deal with repairing and holding its broken limb . if its going to live you can remove prop in 3 to4 days

Hold the stem up using a yoyo plant support from the roof of your tent to give support even a little support is better than none
