LST bending
ZigkGrow
started grow question 6y 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.

Fuck. First week of 12-12 and I almost accidentally top this plant. Broke the stem enough to cause it to bleed on one side. Think it will hold/heal?
Accidentally broke one side of this stem while attempting LST through a lattice. My idea was, instead of simply topping, to bend the plant downwards into the lattice to keep it down. Problem I'm trying to solve is plants keep growing too close to lights. Thoughts? ✌️

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?

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?

LST bij zaailing
Ben vandaag gestart met LST bij mijn fotoperiode van 24 dagen oud, die zonder training echt de hoogte in zou gaan. Ik hou van zo vroeg mogelijk starten met LST en de plant laag leggen. Nog kwekers die het zo doen? Alle tips welkom😁
