started grow question 5 years 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.

When to start LST?
Hey Growers, I'm a few weeks into my first grow and I'm keen to try some LST. Is it too early to start training them? Also, they're a short strain so should I even bother training them at all? Appreciate any advice. Thanks K

Regarding Fimming?
First time FIM for my baby but I’m not sure if I did it right ... There is a very tiny grow in the middle that I noticed today - the two picture are 30 hours apart - did I get it right or did I FFIM lol :p ? Also the plant is still pretty short - should I start LST?

Should I be starting LST. Been bending to get it used to it but not tied yet
I feel like the topic is very controversial about when to start LST. Some say 3 nodes some say 6. Attached is a picture of my biggest girl so far. Lots of new growth this week so far but not the tallest yet. Open to hearing from the grow community thanks

Can i try LST or are they too stumpy?
looking to start LST but my plants don't have much spacing in between nodes height wise, and lots of nodes.. is it too late to try and start or would it be a bad idea due to there not being much room for new branches to then form once tied down? sorry for noob questions!
