First grower. Need info about broke stems.

Hey, guys! New to this forum. So, I broke accidently two stems of my plant (veg stage) so badly that I thought that just close the joints won't work so I took out the stems and now I'm trying to make clones with them, but I'm worried of my beautiful one. My plant is topped and, before the accident, had 7 branches. Until now I only used a little honey and duct tape on the severe ends. I'll try to upload a photo for you to see the damage. What do I should expect to happen?
Thanks in advanced!

So you removed the broken limbs is what you are saying? I personally would just let them be. Duct tape if you are worried about plant getting infected. On side note I am seeing white powdery stuff on leaves on the plant in the pic i think which could be WPM. Also see some holes on a couple leaves which could be pests or just random leaf damage.

Yeah I removed them so Im worried of the consequences like stunt grow or something. The white powder is diatomaceous hearth. In my opinion the plant is growing healthy and in a good peace; some leaves are damage by a cat that sometimes get in my place. Thanks for your answer!

Lol ok just wanted to make sure you were aware in case it was something serious but sounds like it's nothing to worry about. I dont think you will have any stunted growth as long as the plant is already healthy. I've broken my fair share of limbs. Kinda annoying but usually not anything to worry about.

It's amazing what this plant can bounce back from. I've folded the meristem on accident, basically crapped my pants but put it back in anyways. Within 3 days it was standing up again

If you do break the skin on the stem, a little tape will do the trick. I've used whatever was handy, sloth tape or electrical tape and I bet duct tape would work too. I did see the spots on your leaves along with tersky. Glad it's not PM and that it isn't dried foliar sprays on there. Not sure how DE effects the leave, whether it is negligible or detrimental. I assume you are trying to control bugs on the plant with it?

[ALCOnasier]

Yes. Since I have my plant out in my garden the bugs were so attracted to it to the extent that I discovered some eggs under the leaves, but with the diatomaceous earth no bugs anymore. Since I lost two of the stems of my plant... It will be necessary to create more with fimming or topping?

You could if you desired but I wouldn't say necessary if you have at least 3 or 4 remaining. Thats a benefit of running photoperiod plants, you have time to recover or train extensively if you wish.
