The weights I use to bend my plants as I see fit are hanging loose no fixing it to the ground or to the pot.

................................2
I use insulated 2.5mm solid copper wire.
Guess they are 20-30 grams each.

I did notice that after pruning the plants need 2-3 days to recover, very little growth to see but after about 7 days after the cutting I have nice tops again, who look just like the one(s) I cut off. So after a week, carbon-assimilation should de doubled for the top part of the plant.

This should allow for exponential growth.

In any case, since I use fluro tubes directly above then plant which have quite some surfcace, the mushroom shape suits me better then the christmastree shap.
