potfromgreecestarted grow question 5y ago
Is that LST training could be productive? Or this is harmful for the plant?

It's fine. You'll probably just end up removing the leaves on the soil eventually, but everything else looks good.

LST during flower?LST during flower?
I'm pretty happy with the size and shape of them, except PPP3! However I'm not sure if I should continue to keep them as short as possible, or let them just grow up now.
I've never used LST before, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

Remove lower branches on this grow?Should I just remove the lower branches or keep them? They are getting pretty heavily shaded but I rotate the grow bag daily to expose the under canopy growth. This is the only plant I have ever not been able to LST the main Cola, I opted to top it and LST'ed the lower branches.5y ago

Beginner worried she started LST on auto too soon.Question about LST autos (see photos). I read LST should start early with autos, but I am worried I might be starting too soon. I started with plant 3, but it just flopped right over (I didn't have to pull it), so I stopped. Is this ok, or should I wait? The others?

I have a 1200W Veg/Bloom LED which is currently 20" above Martha. I am also LSTing her and am getting good solid growth from the lowest branches which are working to reach up. I am wondering if raising the light 4-6" and try to stimulate some vertical growth. Is this a good idea?

Day 19 pre-flower and stunted growth?Hi folks, I did a bit of LST on my auto a few days ago, then noticed stamens the following day and it seems that growth has slowed. She's day 19 (post sprouting). Does everything look ok?

What do I do with my LST ties in flower?I'm planning to switch to flower soon and I have been using LST on my plants. I know LST should continue for the first two weeks of flower, but what happens after that? Should the ties stay on, or can they come off? I trained the individual branches rather than the whole stem.
