A few questions on Low Stress Training...

I am using a SEEDLING not a CLONE. I have seen a lot on LST but mostly for clones.

1. What are the pros and cons of topping of FIMing first?
2. When can I start bending the stem?
3. Do I grow it in a spiral?
4. Any help with starting and maintaining LST for seedlings is great.
5. Is this one ready to start bending?

No cons, Pro is having two areas to lst from. I would grow out longer. You can really do as soon as you have enough stem to bend. The spiral idea is great in theory but hard in application. But yes, I tie down to the side of the and go from there.

No difference between seed and clones for lst.

I'd get a few more sets of leaves before starting. I would get 1-2 more, top, then lst once able.

And don't think about it so much. LST is simple as can be, nothing to fret over. Just don't break her!
