Bent stem LST
Seratramstarted grow question 6y ago
So I did LST but fucked up and bent the stem a little. Should I just let it heal by itself or should I do something? It's an automatic quick one
Thanks

You can either brace it with some painters tape and a pencil to act as a splint. Or just let it heal up bent and enjoy the extra tops! 🤟😜

It's looks fine. If it can support itself while healing, no need for action. If not, tape it up.

I did an LST last time, but I'm not sure I did it right. Can you please tell me, given that the lateral branches are already very active, but the trunshould I do an LST in a 4-5 days? And maybe some tips. Last time I anchored the plant from the bottom so that the roots wouldn't come out of the ground from below and the stem wouldn't bend so much, and then pulled the stem over the top, is this correct?9mo ago

I don’t know.. I don’t want to risk the final harvest quantity.. Any advise?3y ago

Cracked branch.I was LST last night i cracked on of the main branches. It cracked at the base. It was only a small one it still could hold its own weight. But I tapes it up and staked it. My question is will it stress it out? I'm almost in week 6. I'd the plant gonna stop growing to heal?Week 5

LSTHey everyone!
I snapped a branch very badly 4 days ago, i taped it immediately. One leaf died on that part of that branch but she’s recovering im sure because this branch started growing again. My question is how long should i wait before trying lst again on that branch?One week?Techniques. LST
