Yes a long as you’re not stripping her down. If the stems are still flexible enough you could consider LST.
But be aware that some plants could not react positively to the stress and it could delay the harvest

So this plant is in week 8 now, 50 days and still hasn’t formed any flowers- seems to be vegging forever. Light schedule is 20/4 - breeder says will flower at 18/6 - is it not going to flower because it’s getting too much light? Is this possible for an auto? Any advice? Thank youWeek 8
