HELP! Storm damage

So the storm the other day blew over 2 of my girls and broke some a top off and adjacent limbs f a third. They didn't snap at the bottom so I drove a couple posts and stood them back up.
Here's my question, Most of the leaves on these plants yellowed real fast from being down a short time, i guess.
Will they make it to harvest now?

Well i would not give up hope on them. I would give them alittle help and support with standing like you did with a stake. Man that's hard to see i bet for you but they will i think make a comeback. If your in the states we got some time to heal those up abit. I would give them a good 2-3gal drink with 1tablespoon of good garden Epsom salts per gal. of water. Oh and talk to them tell them what your doing and it's for their own good. Very best of luck to you.
 
I would give them Voodoo Juice to help them repair/replace all those broken roots! Pic 1 is hurting for certain, (Did her tap root break?) she is eating the leaves to try to stay alive. Pic 2 is not so bad yet she is going to eat a few leaves as well. Dont pick them off, they need these for a few days, they will help them stay alive, I would mist her leaves after the sun goes down and shade her now. Also maybe feed them a week flower booster as it will help grow new roots. With some TLC, ok a lot of TLC they should live and produce, the one in the first pic will be a challenge.
Edit If the top is not broken completely off, I would let it stay. I bend, break, whatever I need to do to an individual plant./Edit

When mine get blown over, and they do, a GG4 this year, I stake them where there at. It doesn't hurt a thing to lean over, so I go for less damage to the roots. Last year a Santa Marta Colombian Gold broke the tap root just under the surface, it did hurt its final yield, but finished some nice bud still.
Heres a pic of the GG4 blown over, spread eagled, and tied down!

Good luck!

The rain is not going to hurt (right now full on sun would), we all dont want our buds wet, but at this point I would let it try to survive. It may not make it, if you have something to promote root growth, give her some, she needs all the help she can get.
 
Something else you can do that may help is push soil up around her, covering up to 4 limbs with soil (maybe some rooting gel/powder before covering) if she survives all that is covered can grow roots.
