It's fine, top the plant first and then bend her over for a nice even canopy, keep tying the tallest ones down

Need tips/help with very very bushy plant Potted for almost 6 weeks, grows super super bushy (already has 12 branches (6 nodes?), branches are so short that I can't even LST them. I guess she grows like that because of her genetics but maybe there's a way how to 'fix' her? Topped once, strain RQS Triple G

Enough LST for an autoflower?I was wondering how much LST and how intense the LST on an auto should be? I heard you shouldn't stress autos too much, that's why I'm extra careful and wanted to ask. (And yes I know it's overwatered, I'm letting it dry out at the moment)

Too early to top?Is it too early to top the plant below the top nodes? Trying to not get ahead of myself or be too hasty since this is my first grow. Would it be worth it at this point or would it be better to get some more growth in?
