I have a Feminized Gelato plant from this site. She looks very healthy. I’ve topped and trained her. I’m in week 9 of vegetation. Started the seedling on 24/7 under two 4 lamp T5 highbays. Fox farm grow big nutes, fox farm ocean forest soil. She took off like a weed. Around 3 weeks ago I received my Vipatspectra 900w full spectrum. I’ve had it under 24/7 with that light as well. I guess my question is what are your thoughts on releasing the ties I have holding the limbs down? Should I leave them? Or remove them and let the plant grow towards the light? I’m worried they will start to grow too close and I will have crowding during flowering. On another note, I’m not sure if the inner nodes I’m trying to produce buds on, are going to be mature enough or if I should just snip them off now. Recommendations and suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I wouldn’t release till there is flowers on it. Give the plant time to toughen up those branches. Because if you release early, she will go back to growing vertical. She just doesn’t have the weight yet. 
She looks very healthy and happy right now.

She’ll still grow to the light. That’s why you see where you originally tied them and they curved back upwards. As @MrPeat stated, leave them be so it will stay spread out.
