Hey Guys ,
I m here because I'm using a different lst technique,And It's going well, There is No Top,No Fimming,No etc.. Just Low Stress Training
I have not seen this technique before, I might be the first :) What do I do? I started with the standard lst technique, but as the branches grew, I observed that this technique has become inefficient and limiting. I used plastic metal wire, I did bend to make a spiral and put it into the center of the plant on the soil where root erupts and I pressed it down. I tried to hook and added bigger wire rings as the branches got longer.. I came to this point with 4 rings in total. I added the pictures about it.
First off all. I want to appreciate you for working so hard. These girls are in good health. They seem to love the system they have done . :) best regards We are sick. Grandfather :)
@Bstoner, Thanks for the question. The goal in all bending techniques is common (Lst-scrog etc). We should spread the leaves of the plant as much as we can in order to make the light cover the whole surface (streching approx. 25-40 cms). Those techniques are all for indoor caretakers. Since the sunlight can travel 150000000km, it can diffuse a few cms below, too.That means you are right on your observation.
@im_ok, One question here though, when you start your lst process, in the beginning you're pulling down your main cola so it's at the same height as the other branches which should result in an evenly distribution of your auxins ( because the plant thinks it's main cola is gone ) which should result in an evenly grow of all your branches including your main cola. Am i about right with this theory here you think ?
