The 2 remaining Ripleys are already top heavy at under 10 days old. Went in to check on them today and both had self LST'ed lol (main stems running horizontally but head starting to grow vertically) I will update with pics tomorrow. I'm am not overly concerned however has anybody else experienced this with them?

Do you think I should prop them up or let them have their way ?

If it's due to long stem and laying over from that I might prop them up. Too early for laying over I think. Again that's my opinion and I'm no expert...

Yup due to long stem. And not because the light is too far away.
I have got the pics below as your response has concerned me a bit lol I thought there wouldn't be a bad time for them to lay. Already lost the 1st ripley due to similar circumstances it's stem was like a thread. On the plus side the Fantasmo and the Heisenberg are doing great.

If it was me I'd prop them up...maybe someone else will chime in with their opinions too but that's what I'd do...at least for a week or so.

To be honest I have seen this happen once before and it finished with great results but I am concerned this time as these girls are a little more important

Like i said I am no expert...lol
Just my opinion. If you've had this before with no issues then you'll probably be ok.

To prop or not to prop, that is the question all experienced replies appreciated.

Thanks for your valued opinion dcat

I'd prop them up, a drinking straw with the bendy top works well, and in a weeks time you could remove it.

That or just scoop some soil from around the side of the pot and mound it up around them, and they'd probably stay upright with just that

So I opted for the soil method and will adjust as needed once the head is vertical again.

These Ripleys are explosive. Remind me of gym freaks who never train their legs lol
