This is my first grow about 30 days old speedy gonzales I was doing low stress training and I bent one of the branches to far and I snapped. Here is the pics I got. Should I consider that branch to just be dead now?
Can't get pic up but it's the second branch from the bottom and its broke at the stem almost half way but still holding up its own weight.
 
Believe if still attached it can be mended with tape. If no one responds do a quick googlee.
 
Two words
"Duct tape"
Stat!

thanks for the info.. but the day I posted this I was also googling. and I read that i could use the tape method. i didn't have any tape on hand so i put a twist tie to hold it back up like it was, made sure to not make it to tight. but now i look at that branch, and its not all the way gone, but you can clearly see it is dying. o well lost a branch on my first grow, live and learn..

i have a few question and comments i'd like to say about this grow.. it is a speedy Gonzales like i said before, it sprouted around the end of last month and up until a few days ago couldn't see any signs of sex or it starting to flower, i am using lots of CFL's and have good vents and all the light cycle was set on 18/6 about 5 days ago i was concerned that it hadn't even began to show signs of flowering so i switched it to 12/12 lighting and changed to color to 2700k and now there are tiny buds coming up on every branch... SO PRETTY!!!
i switched to a smaller box when i changed the light cycle because i seen how short it was actually going to be since i was doing LST for a while to keep it short. now the lights are much closer like 3 inches or so and 4 bulbs rather than 6 to 8 inches with 6 to 8 bulbs, and heat began to be an issue, (all i had to do was turn up the fans and alter the venting system a bit.. no big deal).. but i talked the heat problem less than 12 hours after i realized it, but i have recently started to noticed most of my fan leaves getting white spots. more of a really really light light yellowing. I've kept a regular regiment of organic pesticide and never had a problem with bugs at all, or had the problem with spots like this either..
could these spots be a result of something wrong with light set up? is it a sign that its to hot?
and whats up with me having to switch the light cycle? it had been almost 45 days or so and i figured an autoflower would have at least started to show sex or something. can anyone help with their thoughts on that as well?
thank you
