The picture says it all.

While I was tying her down, I guess I was slowing bending the main stock.

Did I just fuck my self?

What should I do?

Can I leave her like this & she will fix her self (Similar to Super cropping)

Oh that's nothing. It will straighten itself out in no time. You could put a stake in and tie it up so it's less focused on the spot. But yeah that stem could have split half way, and it would still be pretty easily repaired.

Soon that spot will just be a fat knuckle, stronger than before.

I am GUESSING that if you can put a small splint on her and keep her up straight she will heal herself and indeed be like super cropping.

I just checked on her & the bend is still there & now their is a little browning starting to form in the creases.
Is that going to be an issue?
The leaves above the bend are fine though.

Did you give her a splint to help support her?

She won't need a splint.

OP I supercrop to LST my plants and tie them down above them bend. They heal up great.

Show us some pics in 3 days time when she heals up, am sure she will, i have by far exceeded bending branches and snapping them whilst 'LSTing' them and they done just fine. :D
