my gbox is about 2 1/2 ft tall. my plant is almost 2 ft. the light is at the top of the box so it doesnt burn my plant...

it seems a little late to start tying it down and bending it over, but is there a way i could do that?
or any suggestions on how to BEnD it over?

Water it really good, and wait like 3 to 4 hours so it can suck up the water, and become a bit more flexible. Then try bending it a little at a time. If you are in flower...too bad need to find a higher ceiling dude.

u may be able to bend and tie it if u r still ealry in flower
but if later in flower,u will notice the stem is alot harder to bend
so just supercrop it,it will be fine

I'd go with bending if I were you, over supercropping. It's less stressful, ansd since you're already flowering, I'd pass, if possible. Bend it a little at a time, and you'll be able to train it in any direction that you wish, without a problem. :)

supercropping will help fatten up the buds, but the plants still have a decent amount of vertical space to grow before they start focusing on flowering. I would say to start supercropping then tie them down to keep them from getting up there. This "problem" will actually help you out before it is all said and done.

supercropping is bending (kind of pinching) the branches over so more light his the other parts rite?
