tape looks a bit loose and it's wrapped above the damage? This is not quite the goal. Don't let that tiny leaf prevent you from a proper supporting wrap around the damage that will properly hold it all tighly together for a few days. I'd re-wrap it and put more effort into closing that wound while you wrap it up. if it has already become rigid, do not snap it again, of course. just live with it at that point. leaves look like they are still connected through the vascular tissue, so i'd expect it to heal.

Use Teflon (plumbers) tape. There's no adhesive on it, wraps better then anything else, stretches, and very easy to remove. Have yet to have a break that didn't heal when using Teflon tape.

get a piece of plastic wrap of cling film and tightly wrap it around and then secure with little bit of tape then you should be okay :)

hum. it looks like its been that way for a bit with the discoloration. Keep it wrapped up. you'll know shortly. I'd normally say just chop it all off an treat it like a topping but the plant is an auto so that wont work. It will likely need a bit more support if it does recover from this.

Surgical tape is good. Like asnoriu said after 24hrs you will find out if it survived.

If after 24 hours its not wilted - it will survive.
