Only thing i can see is keeping her supported as it gets heavier. That's a lot of top hanging on a hinge. Lol. Might consider additional support from roof

I had this happen to me with my Tangerine Dream grow... I was adjusting the lights to rest on the top of the crossbars in my tent because those silly ladies were growing FAR too big! I ended up tying a string around the mid-point between the bend and the tip of the bud and then tying it to the crossbar ... it supported the whole thing and actually turned out to be a great thing as those lower bud sites really came into their own and were super-sized... The plant didn't even blink at the HST.... Just support the bent-over part in some fashion and she'll be just fine!
Good luck!

if you can it would be better to make 2 more bends. instead of doing a straight 90 and having a large crease. having 3 minot bends will heal faster and allow for more nutrition to go through.

Will this tape repair a broken stem?Should I re-wrap this broken stem? Bent with too much pressure and there was a snap, though not completely severed. I applied two or three layers of duct tape, not sure if the constant pull of ties will allow it to heal and repair. When should I take the tape off?

Bending branchI decided to bend the branch to form a bush.The stem was quite thick and when I bent it, I formed a large bend radius, but the next day I noticed that it took a sharp angle. How bad is it, and if it's bad, how to fix it? Thanks in advance🙏

Outdoor growers: fim/top?I want to make sure to clarify that this question is only for outdoor growers with a photoperiod limited solely by the nature of the changing seasons.
Should I even bother with fim/topping? Is the juice worth the squeeze? Let me know your thoughts, or even better, resultsSetup. Outdoor
