HST or LST for short plants?

started grow question 4y ago
Should a plant with very small internodal distance get topped or is LST + scrog probably enough to open her up?

Lst and defoliation or scrog are the Gold standard. Less stress and same results in less time.

General LST questions (how am I doing?)
Should I be constantly changing the direction of the tie down on my main stem during LST or should I just be tying down new growth on bud sites? should I defoliate or use thinner ties (Using rubber coated wire) and should I let small growth grow up first or tie it down ASAP?

Training Plants to early ?
I have 1 plant that towers above the others, should I already tie it down with LST? Should I bend the whole plant or the shoots? or is that too early for the plant on DAY 14?

Should I defoliate the lower nodes of the branches?
Wondering if I should defoliate the lower nodes of all the branches (as shown in the picture, white arrows pointing to what I am considering cutting) to maximize growth of each top. Thoughts?

When to start with LST
Can anyone advise me on when should I start with LST? What’s the right size? My plants have 6cm and 7cm right now, and I want them on a bushier format since I don’t have a lot of room, can any more experienced grower help me?

Lst and pk
I think it will be the last question, I’m questionning myself on lst and pk. I know lst doesn’t harm the plant but did I lst too much so that will answer to the question that they’re so f*ing slow or I’m just paranoid. Can I pk from week 2-3 to the last 10 days from harvest ?
