how can i stop my plant from growing tall and make it start growing bigger branches?

I don't really want to bend it because people told me that latter on when it starts to flower it doesn't grow as good
 
Check out the stalks on these plants. They were all bent. All my tops are even. It makes the branches grow an even canopy so they all get the same amount of light.

Do you have any pics of where its bent so i can see how its done?
 
I thought i would fuck with ya and tell ya the pinch and bend,bend over deal.
I knew you would say "hell NO IM NOT DOING THAT" I may have pictures of that.
 
Ya could do this as well. It makes the branch thick as hell. I do this too. When i get a shoot that is growing too tall I fold it right over.

If ya bent it so it faces horizontal you would be fine. It will grow back up in a day or 2 and then bend it back again.
Ya may have to go 3 to 4 inches for it bend.
Do it and take a photo.
 
Thats the ticket!
Watch now how the branches grow like crazy.
When the top grows up just bend it down some more.
One of the major concepts to growing is to have all your branches the same heigth.
 
If ya look at the branches at the bottom of your plant in time they will be the same height as the top. The branches then get the same light and all grow a huge bud on the top.
I will see if i have a picture.
