Royal Creamatic training

bigfloppastarted grow question 4y ago

What kinda training would you recommend for this strain? RQS say it tends to 'grow one big main bud with just a few small branches,' so would it still make sense to do LST here?

hi there Bigfloppa, it's always a good idea to do LST. Why? because LST promotes "lateral growth" . Nothing increases yield more than more lateral growth, so especially if there is a strong "apex dominance", then more lateral growth means more yield. Start LST early and follow it through until flower for the best results. Hope this helps ! 🚀

Lst it and create more of a bush style plant. It will spread out the one main bud production amongst others. Thus producing more bud in yield. Good luck and happy growing 🌱

Why do my autos take longer than everyone else with same strain If you live in a different part of the states or heavy LST make your autos take longer to grow. I see all these diaries that at 7-8 week there’s is not only way smaller ( I only have the diaries going now) and they are finished way sooner than when I have grown them. Thank you

LST or leave them be?Should I Low stress train these girls? I have never grown autos and I am very afraid to stun them. They are ripping fast through water, temperatures are high so they are producing a lot of sugars. I defoliated the fan leaves of #3 in the hope it will grow a bit faster.

LST or defoliation on autos I think I will need to defoliate a bit those bushy ladies, but I am not so confident about that because, from what I've read and since it's my first time growing autos, defoliation or lst is not advisable because it may stress them a looooot or am I wrong?
