Here she is after two days, strung up like a Pinocchio, as stated I think I may have super cropped afew of the main branches a little low resulting in them being very top heavy… so gave them some extra support while waiting for some big knuckles to form.
please let me know what you guys think. Definitely saved ALOT of headroom
thanks for everyone’s input and for being so cool! This is a rad community

I've used tomato stakes in my 3 gal coco bags to splay open the canopy.
Just guide them into the media through the canopy and secure the stems with velcro tape.

Bamboo stakes are arriving tomorrow, that was my original plan, attached to the outside of the pot and build a frame

Just an update on how the super cropped thc bomb is doing. Added bamboo frame, really bushing out. joints seem to be getting hardened off, other than the one I have attached below - the branch is still growing great but I obviously went a little heavy…… one outta 20 ain’t too bad in my book tho - you guys think it will make it??
Thanks in advanced!

Whenever I go to heavy or if I break a branch I’ll use tape first real heavy like a bandage then take it off in a few days to let it breathe for a day or so.Depending on how it’s healed you can re wrap or not. Treat it like a human wound if it needs a splint or support make sure to do so. You are going to be surprised how heavy your yield is going to be. Great job keep us posted

will do mate, tape came off tonight and the whole branch is now supported by horizontal bamboo. I’ll leave it to breath for a day or two then retape

Overall, it looks manageable.
The only observation I can offer would be to reinforce your outriggers on the two runners.
As those form nice colas, it'll be challenging to keep them from flopping to the ground.
Looks very promising.
