how about LST?

just use duct tape and some soft string, or tape string, plastic string.. It can hold forever.

, and you might not want to top it. lst is no stunting.

LST is easy and kinda fun, IMO. I used string and those black metal paper clips to attach to the lip of the pot.

I broke one of the stalks early on. I was too aggressive, I guess. It was very close to breaking completely off. I splinted it and it recovered fully.

Here they are after the first dark cycle of 12/12 (taken just now). They are in 3 gallon pots. The second pic shows where the stalk was broken and recovered. Third pic shows LST in action (from about 2 weeks ago).

I have some dark green wire and some coated paper clips Im gonna use early on I might switch to tying it down later on. Yeah I've decided to forego topping this time around and just let her grow grow grow.

nice effort..I, long ago(yes, bak in da dai?, I'm , err, over 40, not saying how much.)) used a frame type thingy made of thick string, intitially bits of wood, then attached all the smaller strings - string theory?:roll::roll: Now I only use strings to tie branches and bricks to hold 'em down - luckily the plants grow nice and uniformly(?), so it ends up looking like a Xmas tree laid down, with strings removed as the branches mature and weigh down with bud..
Just BTW - with the topping, if done correctly, doesn't tend to shock the plant significantly, the benefits are there, there are plenty of peeps who have posted their good results, it's just a matter of when u do it and the right genetix - some pot (Sats mainly IMO)just doesn't like being f'ed with..anyway, GL, I'm sure U will have success!!!:joint::joint::joint::joint:
