LST bending
ZigkGrow
started grow question 5y ago
Is this too much bending? Is it possible to make the base straight and bend just the higher stem now?

Hey friend, Always remember to counteract your bend from opposite side.In that way, your main stem will not fall like that.You can check in my diary how I done my LST.Happy growing... ✌️

Thats enough of a bend. I'd leave it and just adjust the secondary branches as needed. Happy growing.

Nutrient comparison experiment; to LST or not to LST
Should I do any Low-Stress Training, which I normally do, since it throws another variable in the experiment? These plants are all different sizes and if I LST I will definitely increase the yield but I feel like that interrupts the scientific process. Shoot me some thoughts.

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?

Need tips/help with very very bushy plant
Potted for almost 6 weeks, grows super super bushy (already has 12 branches (6 nodes?), branches are so short that I can't even LST them. I guess she grows like that because of her genetics but maybe there's a way how to 'fix' her? Topped once, strain RQS Triple G
Plant. Too short

LST attempt revamped
So I took the advice and added another tie at her base just so it's not pulling against her roots. I think I did it right. Top leaves are now pointing upward only after 1 hour after first tie...

If you use LST on autoflowers, is there any chance for them to finish later? I had an experience where I did LST on auto and it took more than 15 weeks to finish her cycle. She stressed out a bit, though. And how is it possible that some people achieve 8 weeks veg with autos?

Disaster! LST rips off entire growth tip after first topping! Any advice?
Hi all, I adjusted LST tension this morning and the entire growth tip snapped off. It was too small/fragile to tape so I put in rooting hormone solution and tried making a clone. What should I do with this plant now? Feeling discouraged.

More lst?
On lemon 2 should I perform more lst? I looked at bending down what branches I'd be able to and it didn't make too much of a difference in regarding to how bushy she is and also the branches are starting to get quite rigid now. Thanks.
