Request expert guidance on how to proceed

I have been studying up on this forum and other Internet sites, so I get confused on where I read different things. Still learning a lot and am very grateful to many: @BobbyDigital and @oldmarine for their comments on this thread. Also, I have read through two excellent threads -
@OldGypsy 's First grow in 25+ years. THC!(Things Have Changed!)
and
@oldmarine 's One for the Money, Two for the Show, Three to Get Ready and Four to Grow.
Currently I am working through @Hellraiser 's
Hellraiser grows Gorilla Glue and other stuff. TONS of info there. I will be studying this one for a long time, as it is an extensive thread.
I have learned a tremendous amount from these folks, their contributors, and many others out there, so thank you very much. Unfortunately in many cases I am learning after the fact.
Fed yesterday FF Trio (week 6), Open Sesame, Micro Boost, and Cal Mag like last time, but added FF Kelp Me and 2T unsulfured molasses: 2.5G at 6.5/1900 in, 8.5C at 5.6/3140 out, which I like better than the last numbers.
RH 45-65%, 72-81F over the course of most days and nights.
I read @Hellraiser 's discussion of insect pests, so I placed a yellow sticky fly trap (battling cucumber beetles outside) in the pot and put slices of potato on the soil. Surprised at how many tiny critters were in there. I had no idea!
So, before watering yesterday I sprinkled a tablespoon of Mosquito Bits on the soil and replaced the trap. No bugs on the trap this morning. Hopefully the bits worked. I will put more potato slices in today and see what I see.
I switched to 12/12 13 days ago and she has grown quite a bit. Also, I may see the beginnings of flowering?
Should I cease LST? The branches are stiffening.
Below are the plants as of yesterday. Notice the last one - how much it is drooping immediately after watering.
