Getting a jump on things..cool.
When that second set of nodes arrives move that tie down up and lean it so the new growth can come forward.

After bending it over I remove any leaf on that exposed side. Usual just one leaf. As it grows you guide branches in all directions to form a base for the floater. Early train will make it branch more. All good stuff.
Just keep spreading them out as you see fit. I'm a month ya should have something similar to this. Your going wide n low this run and this will get ya there.

Two steps in floater screens. First one is early training. After the screen is set it's a no brainer grow from them on.
