Going Back to Veg

Hey All,

Pretty straight forward question. I recently put a plant into 12x12 lighting but I've since decided I want to pull it out and put it back to 18x6 so I can LST it some more. It has been under 12x12 for 12 days.

What are the consequences (if any) of doing this? Thanks

At worst a slowdown while it reverts back to veg. Maybe a few single leaves. It should be fine.

LST it with the stretch. Don’t change it.

I routinely bend branches during flower, sometimes literally fold them over, even pencil sized limbs...Have yet to experience a negative consequence from such action. Maybe I have some resilient crosses, or just good luck, I dunno, but I never hesitate to fold em over.
I have, out of sheer, morbid curiosity, completely tied a branch in a single knot during a stretchy situation, and the branch thrived....

Thanks for the replies. Truth be told, a new plant revealed she was a girl yesterday and she is LST'd better and therefore more worthy of the canopy space on the SCROG so I'm pulling the other one anyway just because it's inferior.

Just wanted to make sure I wasn't doing irreparable harm.
