Have you considered pruning out the main/tallest stem and gently tying all the next tallest stems to the side of the pot? To sort of bring the height down and also encourage a growth pattern like a broad table or disc.
Idk how much longer your growing season is or if you're planning to trigger flowering by going indoors but it would not be far fetched for that to reach the top of the pole even if it starts flowering now, let alone waiting for more vegetative growth.
Given that'll be a big girl, have you thought about potting up to a larger size growing container? If it's not too large already to safely transplant without breaking branches. That'll take pressure off your watering chores.
Yea , I was away so I missed a lot of chances to split/tie it in the first 1-1,5 month. I will have to go for flowering as soon as I take it inside. . Will tie it up a bit first. But it's been topped and did final one a week back , so are splits but to high up . Will need a lot of string I think
Might start another one , still have some summer time left. In winter hydroponic
