Plants too tall need advice

So I've come to the conclusion that my plants may become so tall that they start to attract unnessasary attention (neighbors) I've seen a couple people who tie their plants to a stick to fix that problem but would that affect my yeild at all? What stage of the growing cycle would I want to tie it down?

Are they flowering? You could scrogg them mainline or chop the tops if they're not flowering. How tall are they?

Build like a scrog net for the sides using a strong material like fence wire or the like and weave them through horizontally. They'll bend easily and grow outwards more than up. Ideally you train them that way from the start but they're resilient so as long as you're not several weeks into flowering (sounds like outdoor so still in veg?) they'll be fine. I do smaller plants for stealth/legal reasons, this year I'll do 2x 15gal and train them that way, I have to keep mine under 5ft for same reason. but they can be 5ft wide

Yeah it's an outdoor grow, and alright could I just put a couple wooden posts in the groud and weave the plant around that?

Oh yeah, anything to tie them to, bamboo stakes, spare 2x2's, anything to tie them to will work.

When would be the best time to weave them around a post? Near the end of vegging?

Whenever they're big enough to tie back really. Usually you want to train them while in veg so they're set where you want them to be when they go into flowering. You can certainly tie them up but it's better not to stress them too much once they begin flowering.

supercrop and then scrog it!

Are you talking about the one in your thread "Huge mistake/ need some advice"..... If so dude I certainly wouldn't worry about it.

No I plan on starting over
