When do I start Low Stress Training and Will topping help along with LST to increase harvest?
paliastomistarted grow question 4y ago
When do I start Low Stress Training? and Will Topping help with LST to maximize harvest or Is it better if I just do only Low Stress Training? The Plant is at Day 36th (35 Days and 11 Hours Right now) Are those 2 small dried leaves a sign of a problem?

Low stress training is best performed when the plant is young and bendy, combined with topping, when your plant gets to 5 or 6 proper sets of leaves and lollipop everything below the Y, so negating your yellow leaves😊, you end up with a bushier plant that won't max out the ceiling of your grow op, but may laterally fill the space= more bud sites...happy growing dude

Yes, I would start LST. I see healthy but lazy plants. Need more light? Less humidity? More heat? hard to say

Dont worry all fine... you could start with some LST if you are not sure about topping as early as 2 Weeks after Germ. but you should atleast have a grasp what you are doing by then.
Its all about your own maths in the end if you have the extra weeks for them to heal after topping/training sure go for it.😊

I top all my plants when the have about 6 nodes. Then use lst to spread them out.. I feel it give you far better yield than lst alone and allows you to make a more even easier to manage stem and canopy 💪 looks good so far but I’d give it a couple more days til you top them 👍

Are my plants already starting to bloom or not?I got 3 questions:
1) Do my plants actually bloom or not?
2) Do I need to add red light now? (For now I have 6 "cold" bulbs by 25 watts. Should I change all of them or just ad 2 for beginning?)
3) How can I boost stems growth or it's too late?

First time toppingMy second grow ever (and first photo period attempt) involves these White Widows. I want to top these at least twice. Currently have 3 multi leaf nodes. When's a good time to do the first - and then the second - topping? I've heard several opinions. Maybe I could do 3? Thx

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...

Spiral LST vs Topdressing/mulchSpiral LST vs topdressing/mulch.. I planned on training like shown in picture, just not sure how this will work out with 1" of mulch and a monthly topdressing with all the pegs/wires, might get tricky. Thought about bending all sec branches to the outside vs 1out 1in?? Cheers
