Reason I ask, consider LST-ing the plant. You counter the pressure placed against the base of the stem created by pulling the top down by binding the stem in the opposite direction. If you use a wire tie, as the plant grows and the stem thickens, the wire cuts into the stem.
How much do you think the plant can sustain before it cuts into the vascular system enough to disrupt water and nutrient flow to the rest of the plant?
