I believe these are way to propagate. I’m not an expert but I believe you can cut the broken part and let the stem scab over then just replant it in the soil and it will grow roots. I would Google “lady fingers propagation” good luck!

Good luck 💜 I think you’ll be able to save it.

These are \*super\* easy to propagate!  
Just break that piece all the way off, snap enough of the bottom leaves off that you can poke it back into the soil \& then just water it like normal. also leave the original piece in the soil - it will branch out \& grow more.  
You can even save all the leaves \& stick them on top of your soil, they will shoot out roots.  
Same thing just happened to me \& I saved all the pieces \& now I have too many starts \& not enough pots! 😅

additional note: if you do save the leaves, keep that soil a bit more moist as those little baby roots will need some extra love. I do this by misting the top of the soil so that I don’t overwater the main plant.

Thank you so much this helps a lot!!

You are welcome!

This is what the leaves start to do: the main leaf sends its nutrients out to make new leaves \& roots - the leaf with eventually shrivel up (just misted these). I even picked some of these guys up off the floor a few days later \& they had started to send out roots.
