Lst...round stem?...like a spiral I guess.

Shockolateman08started grow question 6y ago

What am I doing?....see how I bent her almost out of the pot, I don't want that and don't have the space for that. I want to keep it simple and small. Am I doing right or did I do a shnoot.

If you yank her back around half way I don't think you'll need to top. Probably give you at least 10 good top sites with just lst.

You can keep going around till you feel you have created enough tops for your liking. They will stretch 2-3 in flower. Hope this helps! Happy Growing! 🤟😜

Looking for opinions on a try of LST and a thought about taking off big fan leaves from the top Had a shot at LST training one of my girlfriend plants, just wondering opinion from people if it has been done correctly. Also had a thought to take off two big fan leaves from the top to get more light onto nodes, not quite sure if that would be good idea

Please help with LST on Seedsman Auto Lemon She grows very squat and bushy. 3 weeks and only 13cm high. Big fan leaves cover many branches and grow nodes completely. Not sure what to do with her. Is it a good idea to bend the main stem 90 degrees? Or just tie the side branches to the edges of the pot + make defoliation?
