Is it possible to go over board with LST

As Tek says unless they are truly snapped in half they will try to grow straight and you need to tie them down. The White Russian has hollow stalks and breaks at the slightest bend. Scared the crap out of me first time lol.
 
Absolutely not

These are my two mother plants. The shorter bushier plant is a Cheese strain, that shit is hard to maintain lol. That one is my friends, he topped it once and bent all the branches at the stock and now i've stretched it all down with pipecleaners, that one i doing great! The other one is huge, its some strain of Kush. That one is mine, I topped it 5 times, took 14 clones from the bottom and now have stretched out the top with pipecleaners too. I accidentally snapped it right in the middle, bandaged it up with pipecleaners lol (growers bestfriend i swear). I wasnt even trying to tie it down when i broke it, was just investigating the middle. Then i recently snapped one of the other branches. They were only fed tap water for a month and were under a hot 1000watt and they just went nutts.
