Bend her over, cut the top or leave her be?

She’s about 2x2 from tip to tip and 2’ from bottom of pot to top. Want to take 6 of these and fill out a 5 x 8 area so each 2.5’ x 2,67’ I prefer a nice flat canopy but…. Would like to flip within a week but not sure if I top if that’ll be enough time to rebound. Could just let em be more rounded and not touch her. Just throw her into flower now. Thoughts???

Top now if you don’t want to deal with training

Top at half or just less than your ceiling clearance. Or bend over and tie down over a few days at 2/3 height clearance. Space is the issue.

I would top then super crop the side branches if you want all 6 at even canopy. Week veg plus the stretch in flower will have them at nice even canopy. Do you know how much they will stretch? You could get a scrog net, not my thing I like to pinch stems (super crop)

Also that is a nice healthy looking plant!

Looks like 6 would easily fit, as is, in that grow area.

I'm more of a SOG guy now bc I have a lot of variety going, its easy to manage & move things around. I would love the results as well but get bored from only having one strain to smoke from. I tried a multi plant scrog once & ended up cutting the net & super cropping lol

Thanks for all the input. I ended up doing the bend and squeezing the stem to get the “pop” of crushing the stem. I’ll probably wait a bit longer if needed. Want the side branches to get some girth before the flip. I’ll get some pics.
