First time grower, is there a problem?

I find the plant outgrows those clips too. Better using strings with a big loop, or garden ties. Those clips were somebody's scam to make coin off his 3d printer set up in his "office" in the back end of uncle Georie's abandoned tear drop trailer.
 
The point of the LST is to remove apical dominance..

That stops your main stalk being the main and redirects growth to your sides and creates a bush which fills your space and allows the light to be closer to all bud sites when you flower.

So bend the main over..

You want to tie round the bottom section and rope it off to the left (for example) then tie the top and rope it off to the right , slowly over days tighter shorter that rope (string) so your plant slowly leans over and eventually is pulled down to being horizontal.
Something like this?

Getting there, bend that top right over. Make the grow tip lower than the canopy. Side branches will climb right out of the middle.17028669765765927366165056823765.jpg
I used a piece of wire to hook it. This is one of my bonsai mother plants. You can see the main stem bent over just above my thumb. The side branches shoot up and make new clones.
 
Looks fine. Like they said lower that light closer to the plant. Feed looks a little off, but OK. Watch the N toxicity. Good job for a first time.
 
I'm use Fox Farm Trio for nutes. I've only been doing nutes once a week, should I be doing nutes more?
I don't. Nutes once a week at about 900-100 ppm or whatever you're at now, they look good. At thus stage I water twice a week. After you feed, 3-4 days later she'll dry out and start to droop, when you see that water her with phd water. She'll dry again so water again enough to hydrate her but not so much she stays too wet for the upcoming feed. I water three times a week and one is a feed.
