These two Chems are going not bad compared to where I have them at the moment due to waiting for a new tent, unfortunately our local shop is closed down to this covid :(

Yes if LST is something you are interested in doing, then now is the time to start! 1st step gently pull her down sideways with some good plant wire be sure not to tie it too tight to the plant itself! As she starts to recover from pulling her down her branches will start growing out as they do pull them down as well and it will be a bit of work because daily you’ll be adjusting your ties! Once you get the branches spread out enough Over a few weeks that’s when I like to let them go back up! Use the LST to shape her body to get optimal light penetration!! Good luck 👍🍀

Depends on what you want to do with it. Plant training is situational. Its a photo so topping at least once with some conservative defoliation will give a bushier plant with lots of colas. Not real sure of the aim so hard to say.

I would say now but are you going to keep this plant in that pot? looks kinda small sized. don't know how others think about this but I would repot before lst.... technique what i do (but i start a bit earlier) is make something hold the bottom. than point the head downward. As soon as it starts picking up again i start to move my fixation clockwise so that it bends the plant and all nodes receive the light...

Went okay with lst but I broke a part of it so I tied it back up to give it support which should cause abit of stress to it to create a bigger knuckle on the stem then might profuce more maybe through veg?

Am I doing this right? I started the lst, not sure if I’ve done them too tight or not? Would it be worth chucking a full spectrum led in with my cmh315 1000w?

Hi @DoobieCure The main stem was first bent down and away from the center of the plant, towards the side. After that, the grower continued to bend the main stem in a circle around the plant. As a result, several lower growth tips rose up to become colas with fat chunky buds, giving much bigger yields than if there was just one main cola.LST allows a better distribution of light since all parts of the plant (and therefore all the potential bud sites) are located the proper distance from your grow lights. Good luck mate 👍

dont use ropes, they cut through plant. garden wire is cheap and the fatter you use the softer it is and plant loves it. do lst before watering, that way you will reduce breaks and will be capable to bend more. check mines, youll see. good luck !

Be careful with how tight you tie your strings. If you forget about them, the stems will grow around it, literally swallowing them, and you may choke off a little of that transport to the rest of the stem. I would use the twisty tie stuff that comes on a reel, double it up near the end of the tie, shaped as a hook. That will allow the stem to grow and expand, while spreading out the hook part.

Lst looks fine to me 👍🏻 And about the lights: All depends on your growing space and the fact that if you don’t grow with added co2 it’s a waist of power(and money)to go over 600w because plants can’t do anything with the extra watt because there’s not enough co2 to process And a cmh 315 is a full spectrum light and is perfect in a grow space up to 3x3 if you got one with overdrive like my dimlux cmh 315.you can push it to 380w in flower..I do switch bulbs in veg and flower..in veg I use the dimlux 315 4K (full spectrum with extra blue spec) and flower the 315 3k (extra red spec) Good luck with your grow ✌️
