Hi. I just randomly tied my plants down and it came to this. Can it be useful and is it ok in some way or did I just wasted my time and done something detrimental for them?
It seems to me that they are doing ok, and the lower sites are getting better light.
I also tilted the LED

Things go smoother when you wait till the 4th shoots before you top. Gives the babies more time to strengthen. No need to tie leaves. Luck in your grow

I want YOUR opinions on MY training <3 :)Hey people, this is not an important question, I just want to hear everyones opinion on the training I did today (supercropping, LST and defoliation). Does it look good in your eyes, was it too much, not enough or maybe too early / too late? And what should I do next? Thanks :)))6y ago

Bending branchI decided to bend the branch to form a bush.The stem was quite thick and when I bent it, I formed a large bend radius, but the next day I noticed that it took a sharp angle. How bad is it, and if it's bad, how to fix it? Thanks in advance🙏Techniques. LST

So I used LST and had the top tied down pretty far. while messing with the plants I accidentally hit it to hard breaking the main stem about 1/3 the way up from bottom. Instantly taped her back but curious if I should keep it off or what. It was and entire break, 2 pieces.Week 4

Focusing on Full Healthy BudsI think my baby autos went to Flower way too early and I’m not too sure where or when I made the mistake. With that being said I know my yield won’t be huge (as I am expecting this since this is my first grow) but is there any way that I can maximize the size of my buds?Buds. Too few

Hello fellow growers,
It's my first grow so I'm a bit scared to start LSTing it, i mostly waited for it to grow higher and then do some LST but since she get bushier than higher I don't really know what to do.
I also would like to defoliate it

Accidentally bent/squished the stem on Pheno #3, is it possible it can bounce back?I was LST'ing the Purple Haze Pheno #3, I accidentally got a bend in the stem and it could have snapped or partially torn, I attached some photos hope these help. It was by accident, I have nerve damage and arthritis so I can't keep my hands still that much especially standing.2y ago

LST or defoliation on autosI think I will need to defoliate a bit those bushy ladies, but I am not so confident about that because, from what I've read and since it's my first time growing autos, defoliation or lst is not advisable because it may stress them a looooot or am I wrong?5y ago
