If she was yours, How would you increase your end yield LST or HST her from here?

allways take a cutting if you can, you could have a super pheno and if you have a cut you have a mother plant to take as many cuts as you want.
so take a cutting from the top and lst her as your doing by the looks of how shes laying over to one side and let her fill your grow space.

Explain you should.
Hell ya man. That's fucking great. I'm not really a Star Wars nerd, but I like to have fun with people. I like to top and then LST. If you manifold it that's even better, but it takes more vegging time. I've been lazy and not topping the last couple rounds. I'm also doing it as a test, but topping and LST is the way to go if you have the time and energy if you ask me.

Here's my latest untopped clone only Green Crack's. I'll get less off these then manifolded ones, but I'm not hurting for weed right now.

This is relevant to op and more informative than people just saying you should do this or that. Great looking plants, btw!

I start LST early and it breaks apical dominance. I have never topped a plant, but mainlined plants do look cool though.

This is my one of my current plants.

This is the same plant 20 days ago

And this is from my last grow.

Ok so those aren't really lst'd, but crushing and bending works much the same... I always tied strings before... and I'm going back to strings when I'll figure out how to do it in DWC.

Command strip hooks, would solve your ability to do so with DWC.

I vegged it too long due to not getting things done. It did yield a pound, but it wasn't all hard nugs due to being too thick of a canopy (i think). I'm pretty sure I would've yielded the same or more of all hard nugs if I had taken more branches off off the lower parts. Grow and learn I say :)

Can we see a pic of the plant that shows all the nodes clearly so I can see what you mean exactly?

The initial pic was a side shot. I really wanna see the shoots coming out from both sides so I can see where is best to top.

You want to cut right above where you have 2 brand new shoots coming in. They will be your new tops. The top will als grow back in slower so the lower branches can catch up once you tie it back down.

Op , I would make more branches come to the left side of ur pic, by pinching terminal branches on the right. If you just pinch or barely snip off the very very tip end of the growing tip. you don’t have to cut off so much.

Also when tying her down.. make sure it's at an angle where the side branches are still on the side.. not a branch pointing upward and on going into the soil.
