answered grow question 6y 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. 👊

LST - How far down should I pull the stems? If the leaves touch the media, too far? Try and go down as far as possible without breaking? Or just as long as the upper leaves aren't casting shade below?

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?

ScrOG tucking: expose lower smaller bud sites by tucking/compacting main cola branches?
For a better yield, should I aggressively (but gently) bend main leading branches and tuck all shading fans to expose young 'undergrowth' branches (circled) and bud sites to light, or, inversely, untuck fans and straighten leading branches to give more light energy to them?

Should i top the LST trained plants?
I posted a question yesterday and wanted to give an update. The plants are now 22 days old, photoperiod, and they're in 20L pots. Yesterday, I gave them their first LST. The question from yesterday still stands: Should I top them in 1-2 days once the main stem

Well FML, pop goes the main stem.
Trying to bend a little bit more, then that dreaded sound, "pop". Like snapping a fresh carrot it is the sound of heart break. The tie had likely weakened that part of the stem, shouldn't be so aggressive. Any suggestions on how to nurse this break and mend my broken heart?

LST or scrog?
As a first time grower, would you recommend traditional LST or a trellis net? I'm growing 3 plants in a 2x4 tent if that helps? Just wondering what the easiest and least prone to me screwing it up. Thanks in advance.

LST timing
Did I LST too early? She developed tiny shoots so wanted to give them more light, but now feel like I should have waited till she was a bit taller and stronger. Gonna leave her for a couple days and see

Defoliate or not touch untill harvest?
Both autoflowers on diy cheap setup, not a proper one. They both have nice aromas and this is my first grow, the main question is, how much more i wait for harvest? The tall one is cherry pie auto, the small is royal dwarf auto. Seeds sprouted 23/08

Pistils? Steps from now on?
Hey this is my first plant. Went all good till now. Not the growth i had wished for, but im happy. Day 21 now i see pistils clearly. Isnt it a bit early for pistils, because the plant is relatively small. How should i proceed? LST? Topping an option or is it too late?
