good LST idea w/ hydro net pots???

so i think that i came up with an excellent way to tie plants down, when gthere is nothing to tie down to...I am not sure if it will work well, as i have never done it and I came up with the idea over a couple bowls in the grow room....

So what you would do is attach zip ties (probably 4 or 5) around the net pot, like through the top holes, and having the ring hang out above it...these are your grounding points, and all the branches you want tied down can either have multiple linked zip ties together, or you could use rope/string and still just tie it to the base... but what i really have in mind is a self contained zip tie lst...there would be like a web of zip ties by the end, all linking together to form the most perfectly shaped plant


I would love any and all constructive criticism, or other idea of how to lst and still be able to move the plant (because with this method, if you pick up the plant, all the tie downs come with the net pot...) and i need to move my plants from veg dwc to flower dwc, so it HAS to be self contained....


Peace
