Training?

SugarBoogersstarted grow question 5y ago

How exactly should I go about this plant when it comes to training? I've not grown a fem in a while and I'm just looking for a full canopy (or as full as possible). I know about topping, fimming and tieing down the branches, but is there some other/better techniques?

Top early at least once, the LST all the way. I throw 4 pieces of timber down around the plant and hammer in nails 50mm apart. I then tie down and anchor the larger branches then LST more through the grow, stop this in early flower. Also, defoliate fan leaves hard on flip, then again 3 weeks into flower. Hope this helps :)

Shoot i thought i just reacted but seems i didnt. Every tried growing the plant till the 7th or 8th node and then cut it of at the 3rd node? Have seen some great grows with this resulting in solid double or fourfolded mains

Sounds like you already know most of the techniques. Then next step would be like high stress techniques like super cropping and mainlining. There’s no right or wrong way to go about it. You kinda have to decide what is right for you and your grow. For the most part some LST is a good way to go. Topping to me is more if you want really start shaping a plant. Really depends how far you want to take it. Good luck with your grow friend 🤙
