at this point in time, some of the branches might be a bit too thick and harder to lst compared to a younger plant, but i'm sure you can still do it if you are careful and don't pull too tightly...

you can also always try some super cropping as well.

It depends if your branches are to firm to bed over without severe damage. If you are not long into flower you can still top the taller branches and force hormones further down.

I have just started to take the ties off my lst and I'm almost 2 weeks into flower.

Can't I just use a coat hanger and bend the top a little secure it with the hanger part and then the other side in to the soil.

it might work if you do it right, but ive never heard of that before.

The safest way to do it is when the plant is at 5-6 nodes. If you are past that point then the stalk is a little thicker and less flexible. Use some garden tape or some yarn, etc. You need to use something soft to avoid damaging the plant and cutting into it. Bend it a little bit each day to avoid stessing the plant and harming your final harvest yield.
