LST training.
Hashyanswered grow question 4 years ago
Your a little early. You want to wait a little longer for spacing between the sets of leaves. So you put an anchor tie below the 1st set and then another tie under your top set and slowly pull that down. Won't be long before you can start maybe 3 or 4 days.

I normally start training when the plant has 3-5 nodes. Sooner than that and there simply isn't enough plant to work with unless it's unusually tall.

First Time GrowerI’m first time grower and would like some help on choosing my first seeds. I’m doing an indoor grow, LED lights, Soil Medium, prefer high yielding and high thc, feminised as well.

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?Week 3

To LST or No LST?Does practicing LST on autoflowers actually increase your yield? I ask this because I look at people who grow without any training at all and they seem to have way more bud sites. I prefer an answer from someone who has experience growing both ways. ThanksWeek 9

Should I be starting LST. Been bending to get it used to it but not tied yetI feel like the topic is very controversial about when to start LST. Some say 3 nodes some say 6. Attached is a picture of my biggest girl so far. Lots of new growth this week so far but not the tallest yet. Open to hearing from the grow community thanksWeek 4
