Well, I found out it is like the commercial for Tootsie Pops: "How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop? Let's see..1..2..3..crunch.." I was able to keep manually bending the branch for just a few days before I grew tired of it.
BTW, training cannabis like this is called Low Stress Training (LST).

Lst training is actually when you bend down the main shoot, this diverts growth hormones, plus gives more sunlite creating multiple leaders = more budding sites

LOL!!! I just remembered... Back when u was in college, my sophmore year I lived off campus in an apartment. There were external stairs built on to thus old house, and my roommate and I shared this funky two bedroom apartment. Anyway, there was s small landing, and I kept two bonsai there: Japanese maples.

Well, this was in the '70's, so you can imagine that someone thought my J. Maples was weed! It got stolen! I bet they were bummed when they smoked the maple leaves!
