My heavy 600w light fell on my plants and snapped the tops about 5 inches from the top, not completly off but still snapped ive used bamboo to try and starighten them out, should i snap it off or will it be ok?

Try it, splint it with toothpicks and tape, and support the branch so there is no weight on it and maybe you will get lucky.
That happened to me, but mine was broken too far, and it didn't make it.
A lot of guys say it works, and when it does heal, there will be a little strong knot there where the break used to be.

No, put a couple toothpicks around the break for support, then tape it up tight enough to keep it closed up..
Think of it like stitches keeping a wound closed. :)
