Hey guys this is my first grow its a Pure Power Plant from Nirvana shes a hybrid.Im growing it under a 114w LED with deep penetration about the equivalent of a 400w HPS.Do you guys think shell get at least an ounce yield? with a plant this size.Can you guys give me a guesstimate shes flowering at the moment and i topped her.

your led does not penetrate like a 400 watt hid. you can check my assertion, I have with a side by side, lab tests, and with my refractometer.

What week are you in? Might be still early enough to supercrop that top to even out your canopy. All around a good bush but that top cola is only guna get taller and taller while the rest of the bush suffers from the lack of penetration

No problem buddy. I did the same to mine at that time in flower the top cola reached 42". Brought the whole canopy down to about 33". It Really opened up the rest of the plant. She is looking good tho. Any closer pics in natural lighting?

^THIS
DO IT
crush the stem between your fingers and bend her over and put a stake holding the main top over to the side at same level or just under the rest of the tops... now energy will be sent to the other tops.. and BOOM.. the main top will turn upward to the light anyway no worries there. and drop the light on the now flat canopy.

What size is the planter/grow bag?. 2 or
Three more of those lights and about 5 gal of GOOD soil or decent hydro and you could push 5 ziparoos. Oh and do what they said too.
1 100 watt cob would blow that thing up 3500k spectrum seed to bud and boom goes the dynamite !

It can be scary the first time to crush the plant's stem..lol.. I know.. but don't be scared. You'll be a better grower for it. A big fat knuckle will form at that bend spot sealing the break. Squeeze stem where you want it to bend over until it crunches in and carefully bend over and put a stake tied holding the top up at same level or just below the other tops.
Your yield will be higher for sure getting that light down right to all the tops after this.
Good luck.
