LST on good track?
Minigrower
started grow question 5y ago
Hi, first time LST, can someone tell me if I’m doing it correctly, maybe must wait some days, it stressed a bit but is recovering. Think I’m doing k, next time find a kind of grid or so and place it to help me tie branches. Much obliged. 😀

You want the top to be lower than the nodes below it. Best of luck!

LST on rigid main stem
I think I should have started with LST sooner. The main stem is rather rigid now. Unfortunately, I was away during Week 3. Would you recommend gradually pulling it sideways or better to leave it alone at this stage?

These plants are only 19 days from sprouting. Should I begin lst now? Appears they will be quite bushy. But never done last before. Thanks

When should I defoliate photos in indoor 2x4x6 on day 47
This is my first grow in a 2x4x6. I got carried away and packed it out. im on day 47 for everything. 3 autos, 6 photos. I defoliated autos right before flowering. The question I have is should I let the photos grow a little more before defoliating and or topping?

Beginner worried she started LST on auto too soon.
Question about LST autos (see photos). I read LST should start early with autos, but I am worried I might be starting too soon. I started with plant 3, but it just flopped right over (I didn't have to pull it), so I stopped. Is this ok, or should I wait? The others?

LST during flowering?
Hey all, do you keep adjusting and opening up the plant throughout flowering to improve light and air penetration into the canopy? She's getting further along flowering and I don't want to negatively impact it but the branches were so tight they weren't drying after rain.

Cutting leaf
As you can see, one of the top leaf is covering light for side branches and I can't find a good way to avoid that by tying down the plant. I can't tie down the main top beacaue I don't want to damage the first signs of flowering. Can I cut that leaf or will it damageher too much?

DWCbadassquestionmark
My question is concerning the use of LST, and it's correlation to longer than usual harvest times. It seems all the growers I follow whom train/defoliate their plants consistently harvest as much as 6 weeks later than what the breeder calls for. Any thoughts?

Late LST - Week 5.5 - Done correctly?
I have decided to begin LST, despite the risks of stressing the plant at this stage. I figured with it being a hardy strain, it may tolerate the stress and the benefits may outweigh the risks. Have I done it right?

I know I said I'm out of grow space. But this plant is a complete bonsai I messed up good I think lol. If I keep her in veg?
Quick question...could I turn this bad girl into a mother plant? If I keep her in veg and clone, plant her outside. Or make a grow tent just for her? The main stalk is twisted like hell and I'm continuing the pull around the pot...
