Well my 7 Plants are in the ranges of 4-7 inches tall and only one of them is around 7 inches tall and im only gonna tie this one down, so my question is do you think i can start to tie down my plant at such an early age its only been a little over a month since i planted it...................

i currently have 3 outside that are 1ft tall, the other day i transplanted into a bigger pot and i did lst to all of them, yes i did it at an early age but usually people wait a little longer. now after it gets another couple inches taller i will tie it down again, i will do this process until flowering time, the plant will eventually be tied down in a circle so that the stems of the plant get no higher than maybe 1ft off the ground, and by harvest time you should have nothing but nice juicy buds sitting on top.

the younger they are easier they bend, but untill the height is a an issue i wouldn't, they will compete with other plants for light better if you let them grow at least a foot or two first, because cutting the surrounding brush short to allow light to a 7 inch plant could be more obvious than the plant itself.
