answered grow question 5y ago
it should recover, but it will be stunted slightly.. next time when you lst also do it from the opposite side so you don't put any stress on your root mass.. hope this helps.. Happy growing. 👊

First time LST
What can I do to encourage a side stem to grow to the same size/thickness of the main stem? I have tied the top down and tied a stem out a bit to get the light but not sure if I'm doing something wrong that's stopping it from looking like it should, thank you for any help! 😊😊

Too much LST action?
Is this a very stressed bend? I lost a tiny branch on that side that I had to snip, then I saw this UGH. I can't wait until this shit is second nature!

LST Advice
Hello Cultivars! Second grow for me and I'm looking for some advice. How long do "you" LST? I have had several conversations on this and figured I'd post the question since I'm new on the platform. TIA! Happy Growing

Hi, for the first time in my life I did an LST and it cracked a little, will it survive? It hurts more than the plant, I'm so sorry 😔

Did I start LST too early?
At day 22, did I start LST too early? I feel that I may have stunted the growth a little from overheating, but didn't want to wait too long to start training. Also, would a higher-powered light cause less distance between the nodes, and therefore make LST harder/less effective?

Should I remove some off the bigger leaves or is it fine with them outdoors. And do I have to adjust the cables of the LST?

Water and LST
It's my first Grow, going into week 3 should I go above 0.5ltr per pot? I want to try lst, I only have pipe cleaners and I don't think they are quite big enough for me to try lst yet should I wait a couple more days or just go for it?
