If it's a bad break, you can splint it with sticks, or bamboo skewers, etc then tape and or tie it.

If you are in the veg stage and the break was a stem and not the stalk.... You could always make a shit ton of clones. Other than that if its as bad as you depict there is nothing you can do, once air gets in the stem it creates an embolism and the branch will die.

Good Luck

Stem Problems

Stem Breakage - Everyone from time to time has had this problem or will. This is when your stem is broken. Stem breaks can come from a number of things: training, dropping something on it, animals, weather. No matter how it happened the most important thing is to not panic.

Solution - Fixing this is not really a problem. Splint it with something and tape it in place. Marijuana has a great ability to come back even after a stem break. Give her a week or so to recover before she will start to grow again. And be more careful next time!

I have re-rooted broken off main stem and it worked. Basically I moved up a node above the break, cut it there, skinned it, dipped it rooting hormone, and treated it like a big clone. It never wilted, but didn't look like it was growing at all (a couple weeks later) then I stuck it in with my budders and it's now about 14" tall with buds coming all over it.

Anyway, I'd imagine the phase one is in would matter in the success of this, and the size of the piece you're trying to save.

You can wrap the thing in a tin-foil cast , leave its internal diameter slightly larger than the circumference of the stem so it has room to bulge, spray some water into the inside, and let it be... works fine it can't be that hard.

Oh and there's garden tape, you can use that or masking tape. You could even put masking tape around toothpicks to make a brace... And those are some damn blurry pics, you must have been shaking all nervous 'bout your plant and shit.

Oooooh... Or you can make the "Ubercast" with paperclips, foil, and tape.
