Gently. Damnit very gently. Don’t go ripping branches off and stuff. Gently bend all those long branches into 7 shape where your finger is in the SECOND photo. Use that as a base line for where you grab all your branches and bend them down so the tops are all in line with those smaller bits where your index finger is in second photo.

Bend the branches on right side of your finger down and right, on the left side of your finger bend them down and left.

Check this tool out man. It’s very useful. If you’re interested in this. Tell me and we will talk more. Simplified. Your plants want x light at x stages. This meter shows you what your lights are putting out at x height, and you raise (often lower) your lights to that sweet spot. Lux. What your plant takes in. This is a really useful tool to help you dial it in.

I watched a you tube video. On a guy using this tool i thought it was very neat he was talking bout certain sweet spots basically exactly what you said

Just supercrop the bitch. Crush the stem between your fingers and bend the tops over. And don't cut all the fan leaves off.

Yep op this guy showed a perfect example of the goal. At first you’re gonna think wtf have I done but it will grow into a NICE plant this way. You won’t have much bottom BS because you’re putting the tops with the middle then in about two weeks I’m gonna tall you through “lollipopping” the bottom shit off so all you have are a 12inch ish area of buds. No bottom larf.

Here's that plant the next day. The top is already growing back up but it's height has been reduced and as it continues to grow it will be fairly even with the side branches.

Go do it man. Don’t snap your branches grab where you want the bend, and squeeze it with thumb and index until it’s gentle mush, and fold it the direction you need. You can’t go wrong here. Go do it’ll it’ll be fun. Take yo time. Pinch the stem. Fold where you need it. Think of where the tops of what you’re bending will be once bent. You want them in line with your lowers. They will all stretch into uniform shape.

It will be fine. I've done some serious supercropping to control height. Plants survive and don't miss a beat.
