Question Broke the green off? Worried!

I am brand new to the banana tree challenge, and received 2 bare root Goldfingers in Monday afternoon's mail. While planting these in a couple of 8-inch pots while I wait for warmer weather (mid Michigan!), I broke the green central growth off from the pseudostem, but did not damage the pseudostem itself. Is my tree at risk? I know I can't cut the stem, and I know I can cut the leaves back, but can the leaf whole "body" be broken off and still recover?
