Yes, just squeeze the branch between ringer and thumb until it is crushed then slowly bend over keeping your other hands finger and thumb of the outside of the bending branch so as you do not snap it, like i said slowly does it, if it snaps just wrap some masking/sellotape around the broken stem it will heals in day, once bent over you can tie it down to something to keep it low, also bend as the lowest point you can on the plant. plenty of youtube videos showing you how to do it.

When your plants grow like that your best bet is to snip away the lower satellite branches and just grow out the top colas. I've had strains that stretch no matter what I try. Gorilla Breath is one of them and its a staple of mine. You get that hopscotch style nug spacing on some branches. The only way for me to resolve it was just to let it flip for 1-2 weeks and then go in and snip away any lower sub-nodes (satellite nodes) leaving any healthy van leaves alone. "Lollipop" is the term for the training I use.

End up with big fat tops and no little annoying stuff that is usually not ripe and ends up being hard to trim come harvest time.
