Is this plant ready for some LST? I don’t want to do anything crazy just attempt to stop it getting too high.

It’s too early Growmie! I say give her at least a couple more weeks to strengthen that central stem and grow a few more nodes. Then you can start bending and shaping. The best thing you can do now to keep her compact is give her more light. She looks like she’s stretching to find more light. Good luck!

No, it is too young/small, LST at this stage will just freak it out. Wait until there are 8-10 leaves or so.

You want to wait until you hit the 3-5 node. The objective when you do is to bring the top of the plant down so the growth between the leaves and main stem get enough light and start gaining apical dominance. So you will need to get a plant white between the top growth and the node below it. This plant is so young that node is to small to even get a plant wire between it

WAY too early - poor thing needs a chance to strengthen up!! I honestly don't even start to do any LST until a) the plant has 5-fingered leaves and b) it's got at LEAST 4-5 nodes on them. You've got plenty of time to worry about height issues ... you may not have ANY worries there - and you may have worries all the way up to harvest... but you won't know that until you give her a chance to grow... Relax, be patient, let her get her strength! Good luck!

I agree it’s way too early it’s literally got it’s first true leaves. I’d wait another week or two

Yeah, I would agree with damn_dorothea. It's way too early for LST. The easiest way to prevent them from stretching further is to bring the light source closer to the plant. Or choose a stronger light source. And definitely don't forget the fan. The airflow will make the stem stronger and thicker, making the plant more resilient. Wishing you continued success! Cheers!
