Probably won't cause any problems. I take it your main concern is the branch all pulled down? Prop her up overnight and I be by morning you won't even be able to tell anything happened. 
I broke 4 branches off. Main colar intact.Probably won't cause any problems. I take it your main concern is the branch all pulled down? Prop her up overnight and I be by morning you won't even be able to tell anything happened.
A week from now it will just be a hole in the canopy. By the time you go to flower it will have closed if you just do a little training. Plants healthy so this is just a hiccup.

She's still young enough that I bet she comes back just fine, those bottom branches will fill out just train them to the area where branches broke off. i would even try to save the broken ones. Dip em in some cloning gel (I'd use just plain old aloe) see if they root.
i don't have a ton of experience growing nice plants. I have grown some pretty bad stuff and totally wrecked grows. And the weeds still survives

After thinking about it a bit this might be a good time to just clean that side off and pull her down towards the opening and let the rest come on scrog style. just pin out the branches and watch them fly.
Funny no cleaning needed...tape measure was a thirty footer and dropped three feet clean everthing off nicely. Just spent more time with some LST to the side that was bare. Wouldn't you know have 5 bomb seeds and 1 indica dominant and I smashed the one Indica plant. Figures.
I think I did what you suggested, let me take a pic.

Agreed w/the rest, looks like it'll be fine. Looking at the pics you can't even really see that there's been damage. Take a breath and move on!

Oh ya, I pulled two main branches off mine trying to tie them down, and split the leading node down the middle while trying to mainline it. I tied a rubber band around it and now its almost 6 feet tall. It was about the same size as yours when it happened.
