Started LST a little too early with this second grow, didn't kill my yield but may have lead to an early flower for one or two of my whole bunch, the blackberry being one of them.
This is the week I got too LST happy and snapped the main cola off of one of the Blackberries. I taped it up with masking tape and staked it and let the plant heal after than with very little LST after that compared to the other strains I am growing.
It bounced back quickly and the branches surrounding it overcompensated and grew much bigger. Effectively topped the plant without fully topping.
The broken plant bounced back like nothing had happened. In the short short time it took for the main cola to heal the other branches had gotten huge. LST is performed to basically train the main cola down and have the other branches compensate and I accomplished it alright
Its always so crazy to see how big the difference a week or even half a week can make. The broken plant kept getting more and more purple, the unbroken one stayed green longer.
