Plant looks stunted for other reason other than being topped.

What do you mean ? I just topped her shouldn’t it be?

she’s actually taller, I’ve got her pulled to the side maybe that’s why she looks that way plus it was a top view picture !

Looks even worse form that angle. Why such a huge pot so soon? It’s difficult to maintain proper moisture in soil with tiny plant and huge pot. She looks deficient due to something at the soil level maybe…. Like not getting her feet under her.
idk tbh. You should be able to get a healthy plant that size half the time. With proper sizing transplants and fresh soil.

I'm going to chime in with a suggestion re: LST. So I just tried LST for the first time with 3 plants over the past few months and I did it the exact same way you did where I anchored the main stem down to the side of the plant and then kept doing that as it got taller and taller. This worked, but over time it became a bit of a mess and now that I started a couple auto's these past few weeks I decided I needed to try and do it 'properly'. I'm still learning, but one thing I realized I did wrong is that I didn't add a counter anchor on the main stem which resulted in the plant just going like this:

instead of turning at a 90 degree angle like this:

Anyhow, good luck & happy growing

That soil has dead leaves and other things - where did you get that ?
Looks like plant is having hard time getting any good nutes from it .

From the videos I've watched, They usually top after the plant gets 5 nodes.
