It will not grow it back. It will put energy that WAS going to that branch into another branch.

Think of it this way. If a deer walked up to this plant in the wild and ate a branch, do you think this WEED would keel over dead?

Probably not!

I also had another thought(still wondering about your pot size). Instead of bending the plant this late. Re-pot it AT an angle! :thumbsup: Then just worry about bending the softer new growth.
