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!

Can i try LST or are they too stumpy?
looking to start LST but my plants don't have much spacing in between nodes height wise, and lots of nodes.. is it too late to try and start or would it be a bad idea due to there not being much room for new branches to then form once tied down? sorry for noob questions!

Am I doing LST training correctly?
I'm at the beginning of Week 2 (AUTO-FLOWER), I'm trying to do some LST, little bending and nothing more. Can anyone please say if I'm doing everything correctly? I don't want to stress my lady, and I also won't do it bad way. I will be grateful for every tip!

How long can i LST/ScrOG my plants before it would limit the yield? Stop with flowering or? I'm at the end of the 5th week and all plants slowly start flowering. I need low plants because I'm afraid I won't fit in the tent. Thanks for the advice!

Early LST defoliation
Hi guys, is it ok to defoliate some leafs while doing LST at the early stage of growing to get more light for the buds? Clones, day 10 after transplanting.

Topless Autos
Morning Cultivars, This question is for all of the “Auto Growers” out there. Do you top an auto? If so when and What types of issues have you had? I am looking to experiment and mainline one of my autos.

General LST questions (how am I doing?)
Should I be constantly changing the direction of the tie down on my main stem during LST or should I just be tying down new growth on bud sites? should I defoliate or use thinner ties (Using rubber coated wire) and should I let small growth grow up first or tie it down ASAP?

Topping and LST
(Not autos) I've topped before, but was wondering can you achieve the same yield just LSTing without topping, or is it best to do both? I know there's lots of info online but i feel more reassured listening to you guys lol, cheers

will she became too comfy to get training?
Im not planning to make lamp-plant dist. bigger, also dont want to gave up on the 24 per day light feed. She will grow like a bush, and thats nice but wont this affect her training manageability for the next weeks? If the folia remains this dense, she might not appreciate bondage
