right time is of the essence! you need to bind the break with string nice and tight and then if you have some use some duct tape but not the sticky side down or wen you take it off you'll skin ya lady!

after you have done that...(ensuring you have the break lined up right).... you need to give the plant a small dose nitrogen and leave it for a couple of weeks to heal.

all things well the branch should be repairing itself and in a month if you have that long left you can take off the bind and all will be well!
If you have less than a month left just leave the bind and tape on till harvest for support!

hope this helps 000

depending on how big your plant is it might just be easier to remove it. Up to you mate

You're worried about one branch at the bottom of the plant? Why? That bottom branch will have next to no bud on it anyway. Just cut the damn thing off just above the last set of leaves before the bend. Or tie a splint to the branch if you're determined to save it. By "tie" I mean wrap it on there with some string or dental floss, just tight enough to hold it in place until the branch mends itself. For the splint you could use something like a piece of bamboo barbecue skewer or even a toothpick since it's a very thin branch, anything that will hold it straight.
