Hi there! Yes that it just the way to do it! When the new tops grow up keep bending them down again!

LST on rigid main stem
I think I should have started with LST sooner. The main stem is rather rigid now. Unfortunately, I was away during Week 3. Would you recommend gradually pulling it sideways or better to leave it alone at this stage?

Three a Light Book
Alguien leyó o probó la técnica desarrollada en el libre Three a Light? Qué le pareció y si le dio resultado al aplicarla, sobre todo el desguace. Me gustaría también si alguien tiene alguna recomendación para este cultivo que estoy haciendo actualmente! Buenos Humos! abrazo!

Is this LST I made okay for now?
My seedling is 11 days old, with an iron U-shaped stake I bent the plant as you can see in the photo, did I do well? (it's the first time I do LST) if everything is ok, now how should I proceed?

Remove or tie down fan leaves?
Hi guys, what's the better option, removing big ass fan leaves to give bud nodes more exposure to light or tie fan leaves down? I tied a few down but don't know if that's a good idea. Help is greatly appreciated ;)

Should I defoliate the lower nodes of the branches?
Wondering if I should defoliate the lower nodes of all the branches (as shown in the picture, white arrows pointing to what I am considering cutting) to maximize growth of each top. Thoughts?

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.

More lst?
On lemon 2 should I perform more lst? I looked at bending down what branches I'd be able to and it didn't make too much of a difference in regarding to how bushy she is and also the branches are starting to get quite rigid now. Thanks.

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.
