What you're doing there is correct but too early, there's no need to bend yet until you have more growth tips. The idea is to bend the main tip down so the shorter ones catch up and tie them all down evenly to create a nice shape for flowering 🌱👍

A little early for LST. I would usually wait until 4-6 nodes before performing LST or topping. This allows the plant enough time to establish its roots and recover from any stress faster. But you got the technique correct.

What Should I Do?I'm planning on swazzing this next week and was wondering if maybe I should bend those long ass shoots to fall on my ring when I do? In my head it would even the canopy and get more exposure in the same. Am I wrong? Should I do it or just swazz and go? Any input would be greatly!

Rate my LST Third round of topping. Trying to bend the branches in the usual way so "pulling down", the "Y split" in the topping sites always break/open. So I'm trying this way with ropes and engraved sticks to PUSH the branches away from the inside. What do you think? Alternatives? -DD
