TOP ? LST ? or wait ?
pitbulletstarted grow question 4y ago
My first grow.
This is W3-D18. I don't want her to grow tall cause it's on a 1 meter tall room.
Should I top it now ? just LST ? or still wait ?
I'll post a picture of the stem and the leaves.

You usually want at least 5 nodes running up the main stem before topping. Topping will give you two tops instead of one, slow down the upper progression on the main stem and spread the growth hormones to the lateral branches making the plant bushier. If your strain is a strain that is known for getting tall then topping would be a good option.

Should I defoliate after topping with LST ?I just did my first topping and she took it very well, no signs of stress and actually growing really fast I think.
I was thinking about LST the top colas so the lower ones can reach that height, should I cut the top leaves shadowing the lower future colas?

Grow LightsIs it okay to use an LED Light 1000 watt (4x4x80" tent) & a UV Light 1000 Watt in a 4x4x80" grow tent for 3 plants. I want more light, I have plants growing slowly so I'm hoping to adjust the amount of light I have would speed up their growth. LED is white spectrum & UV blue-vegLeaves. Tips - Burnt

LST - am I doing it right? Stacked nodes on autos make this finnickyIs anyone able to give me some feedback on my LST and tucking technique? I am growing 3 autos in little 2 gallon pots and one in particular is ridiculously stacked/dense in its node development (the Godzilla Cookies Auto,, first photos!). Should I bend more/tie lower/more?

I snapped the main stem during LST by accidentDo you guys think my plant will recover with the main stem break? Details are in the journal but basically it completely snapped, was hanging by a thread of fibre. I used some allow and ducting tap that came with my exhaust.

Advice on defoliation/LST - getting too chaotic hereIs it fine to cut off some of the big fan leaves this early or should i just tie them down to expose the tops to more light? If defoliation is fine already please let me know which leaves can be cut off, and if not i also kindly take advices on tying them down. Thanks!

ToppingNever topped plants before, this is my first time growing and with the tight spacing of the nodes might have damaged the little growth in the crotch when I cut... Should I be ok or did I potentially damage the yield potential? Should be able to zoom in on last few pics of week 3

When should I LST and add Nutrients?Wanted to low stress train this plant if I am able too.I am not really sure when to start, does the plant look old enough to begin introducing this technique? Should I wait another week? Also when should I start feeding the plant nutrients? It’s still growing pretty fast.
