I'd say cut it back to the green. One thing that's for sure; the part that's black now is never going to come back. The only thing it could possibly do is to spread further, so you have nothing to lose. Cut it back, and make sure that the entire cross section, at the cut, is white/green. If you see any darkness in there, cut it back a little more.
