I topped my plant using the uncle Ben method and it has gotten quite bushy to say the least. So bushy in fact that fan leaves are everywhere and its nearly impossible to open it up so the lower leaves get light. While the top of the plant is getting good growth, the bottom and middle has virtually stalled. Any advice before I make the switch to 12/12?

Sorry I forgot to mention I am already lsting her and have quite a few branches tie down. Problem is you know the pistol things that end up growing into new branches and the fan leaves grow with them? Well there are so many of them growing everywhere that no matter how much I lst the fan leaves still cover the plant

Just remember when you 12/12 her she will stretch ,them lower branches grow the most at that stage.Wait until she has stretched to her full size before worrying about leaves being to bushy

as long as leaves are getting light your plant will be fine, don't start hacking healthy growth off. and remember when you switch to flower your leaves are what need the light not your nugs! don't worry about budsites getting light, you want as many healthy leaves as possible to absorb as much light as possible.
