answered grow question 6y ago
if you did it in a "S" the top portion of the s would block light from the rest. The point of LST is to open the branch and nodes open to the light. Look up stunted art on insta she makes some cool shapes with LST/HST Hope this helps

When to begin LST
Any hard and fast rules for deciding when to start LST? I plan on doing SCROG later on but would like to tie down branches before then. On Day 19 with 4 nodes so far.

When to stop tucking under the net?
My autos are now in the beginning of week 5 and have already made quite a stretch during week 4. My question is what a good indicator for stopping would be or the perfect moment basically.

First indoor: how do they look at day 28?
Hi everyone! First indoor grow: Spider Farmer 60x120x180 + SF2000 200W. Plants are 28 days old. Z Up showed pistils on day 23, Gorilla Cookies on day 24, a bit odd since early growth, while Strawberry Gorilla still none. Thoughts?

LST : now or later ?
Hi guys ! I'd like to try LST on these sisters. Just wondering, looking at the latest photos do you think they're tall enough ? Or should I wait a bit more ? Also in which direction should I tie them down to maximize yield ? Thank you in advance ! 🍃☀️

Flowering and LST Tie-Downs
Now that she is flowering, do I remove my LST tie-downs? Or do I just leave them on and make sure her stems have plenty of room in the loops?

Grow method advice
I want to grow plants tall however considered doing LST. Any suggestions on growing techniques here, maybe topping instead? If i do LST does that mean they wont grow up tall? Was thinking of doing different methods but want them all to be the same height. Also want good yield.

LST clips
Am I using these clips right? The branches are aiming downwards and literally laying on the clay balls. I did try to bend the clips out a bit so they're not bending at such a sharp angle but they've gone back to shape. Is this going to damage or stress her too much?

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