tie it down . you can get way more bud that way and it makes the stalk stronger. it keeps the plant low so you can keep the light closer and get more tops
Being, well, it just passed 4:20pm where I am so, um...yeah, I forgot all about tying them back this exposes more of the lower stem and the nodes hiding under the top canopy, for extra bud growth it also is a lot less stressful than cutting, too.
