I see a lot of questions from people wondering how to shorten their plants once they've started to flower. You know, "It was all uber-stealth until it got 12 feet tall and all the grass around it flattened."
I top most plants using Uncle Ben's method

and I've had times when the resulting four stems have split at the base. Usually I just pull it back together and it keeps on rolling. But what would happen if you just left it lying there? Would it recover? And could this be a solution for someone who's stuck with a monster plant in flower that needs to be trained severely?
This is an Early Durban, about 7ft, 3-4 weeks into flower. The stems were pulled away to the point where they separated at the base, and were left lying unsupported just above ground. I'll track the progress (or slow, painful death) and post pictures every few days.
Sorry if someone's already done this. And no, it's not actually LST, more like HST. But you get the idea.
