Plant Bending Over From Bottom

I have a couple plants with some bending issues but one in particular is bending quite a bit from the bottom of the stem all the way up. Its like this / but if you were too pull the middle a little more down. Does that make sense? My plant is practically LSTing itself. Should I leave it be and just let it grow like that or should I straighten it up by tieing it or something?

A picture would help as its hard to diagnose your problem as it could be under watering it could be Stem rot, it could be stretching for light, etc etc

Oh sorry Ill try to get a picture, but its an outdoor grow so I dont think its stretching for light.
 
it's fine I have a couple plants that grow out sideways and I grow indoors they just turn out normal eventuaally
 
It's fine you just need to support it with a stick.
Also get some wind on it to strengthen the stem.
This happens a lot when the plants get top heavy. Good luck
 
So do you guys suggest I tie it up with a stick or just leave it be? If I just leave it will it still grow fine and flower fine considering the top is facing upwards.
 
It looks healthy, just leave it. Any sagging later can be dealt with by tying the buds to a higher anchor wire or tree.
 
have you every try the bending techique before ? try research on this one...so right now you can put stake and tied, not tightly ! happy growing
