Growing Plants Sideways

In my home town one of my friends Grandparents used to grow Marijuana and one day he showed us something crazy. He grabbed his plant at the top, and pulled it down to the ground and used a rope to tie the top of the plant to a cinder block. Then the side of the plant acted like the top and started growing upwards, so the plant had like 5 tops instead of one. So what I am doing it pretty much the same thing, but since the plant is smaller I tied to to a heavy-ish metal fork instead of a cinder block.







This is just an example I found on Google images where someone did something similar, but it looks like they grew it like this from day 1 by guiding it, instead of weighing down the top.

fin, that last pix looks to be mainlining, not what you're talking about..
Pretty piss poor crack at a mainlining job, too if you ask me. This guy is using a 40-50 gallon bin outdoor. I can pull at least twice that using the same technique in a couple 5 gallon buckets indoor under a 600w.

Edit: Low Stress Training is the word you're looking for Fin.
