get some stilts then all your plants will look smaller

if this is wrong sorry i have never been told different
and i dont want to get in to the genetics of it and i know indica short stativa tall... i want to know of the differnet methods to training or stunting its growth
after four sets of true leaves develop u can start pinching off the new growth. this will cause the plant to produce two short main stems instead of one big one. u can do this 2 or 3 times during veg. or u can train the plant ( bend the stem downwards so it grows laterally.
what u mean true leaves??? like the pointy ones or do they have to have a certain number of fingers to be true leaves??? and is there anything i can do light wise??? and is there a specific time that i should start bending???
i have 2 plants going both i have bent one i did a better job training (its only 6 to 7 inch tall and its starting to bush out) the other one i have i have cut the tops off twice and it still grows fast
Twitch, do a search on these boards for 'LST' which is Low Stress Training, and 'topping' which is removal of the dominant apex.
