Default Bending?

I have been told of a technique where you bend the top of the plant down to expose more of the plant to the light. Does this work? What kind of results does this achieve? And if I were to do this, what stage of the growth is best to do it?

it`s called Lst. do it in veg preferably. it gives more light to the side branches to make bigger nugs. mostly done on topped plants because they get to bushy if not

I love tying my plants seeing i have a limited vertical space... I would in no way use it to get more light to the plant...

It is more to spread the canopy over a horizontal space and keep the plant lower...

Depending on the strain you might end up with multiple "main" colas similar to toping but with less initial stress...
