so i have a bunch of tall Skinny clones i am about to put into my DWC system.

i have stolen that image from elsewhere as its pretty much the same as how mine looks.

now my question is... i need them stems to be thicker. They look like they were grown under weak lights but they will be going under 600w lights soon.

Should i top it and hope it bushes? should i LST?
will it always stay they skinny, i tend not to yield very well when clones look skinny like that.

what would you do if this was clone?

I think I would trim a couple of bottom leafs off and plant it deeper, below the cuts. How did they get so tall? What light were you using? Perhaps after you get them repotted try a very lite breeze to help with strengthening

Pile your medium around the stem as far up as you can. Roots will shoot from the sides of the stem as far up as medium is. Add silica to your feed to increase stem strength.

What to do with a tall skinny clone? Send it to modeling school? Maybe... problem is, they can come back all stuck on themselves and bulimic.
