Perfect! Pulling from both sides reduces the stress on the roots! Good work! Happy growing!

Was this LST the correct move?
I felt like this girl was getting a bit too bushy and dense so i spread her out a little bit, I was wondering if maybe i was going a little too hard considering she probably wont stretch much more and is mostly focused on flowering.

Removal of fan leaves touching the medium
When performing LST, would you guys remove the fan leaves touching the medium or leave them on? I am just worried that they might catch mold due to the irrigation.

LST attempt revamped
So I took the advice and added another tie at her base just so it's not pulling against her roots. I think I did it right. Top leaves are now pointing upward only after 1 hour after first tie...

First time LST
First time trying LST. I have very limited space and my plant is getting bushy, so I used garden wire + clips to bend her down (see pics). Not sure if I did it right. Any tips or corrections are welcome!

So the plant stretched about 10-15 cm since flower. Is she gonna get much bigger ? I mean her conditions were pretty good, i trained her pretty good in my opinion, maybe she had a few days with less sun but i hope to get a good crop hehe Any tipps or comments? Thank you!

When stop LST?
First time grower here. Have been doing LST, and it seems to work well. I've just spotted pistols, so she is starting to flower now. So my question is, should I stop LST? Should I remove the (padded) wires? Or, when do I stop? Or should I keep LST until I harvest the flowers?

Fuck. First week of 12-12 and I almost accidentally top this plant. Broke the stem enough to cause it to bleed on one side. Think it will hold/heal?
Accidentally broke one side of this stem while attempting LST through a lattice. My idea was, instead of simply topping, to bend the plant downwards into the lattice to keep it down. Problem I'm trying to solve is plants keep growing too close to lights. Thoughts? ✌️

Have just noticed that my slow lemon plant seems to have had a slight rupture, don't really know how it's still ok as it looks like it happened long enough ago for it to heal kinda... Guessing I got a bit heavy handed with the LST in a tired stoned state... Should I do something?
