Well that's the idea....to stress her a little bit. Get those hormones redistributed to the lower nodes to make them tops. Its my favorite way to create a monster

nice i noticed your stem is pointing straight up from the dirt without support why does mine go kinda slanted is that bad for it?

is your plant a clone or from seed? Mine is from seed and I pop mine in root riot pods and when they finally sprout and I put them in dirt, I leave a little bit of the pod out of the dirt for support. Plus mine being from seed makes its tissue softer than that of a clone. Bends much easier.

You won't damage the roots unless your uprooting the stem, that's why you tied your stem at the base before you tied it down at the top.
Your stem is just more mature or woodier than mine. Could be a laundry list of reasons why, figured the seed/clone was the best shot in the dark lol
