SupportiveMangostarted grow question 3y ago
Are my plants at the stage where I should be either topping or trying out some LST? First time grower here, so not sure if I should be doing any training, just to see how it goes. Any help would be super appreciated!

I usually lst about day 20. I have a diary called Larry lemon og auto. I did a daily picture from seed to smoke after lst. Was a qp auto. I don't recommend topping due to it is too much stress for a auto to recover from. They are on a limited time schedule and wanna avoid slowing them down as much as possible. Good luck and happy growing 🌱

Are those nutrient defficiencies? Which ones?A plant had interveinal chlorosis on new leaves and then proceeded to show brown patches between veins on middle leaves. Another has coppery brown spots on leaf edges on the middle of the plant. Both were rootbound in living soil (peat/perlite/hummus + ammendments).

Transplant and lstHey, so I transplanted this grow 1 day ago, I’m waiting for it to watch if it doesn’t cause much stress on the plants, my question is if I can start topping soon like in 5 days or so and then move on to lst, what do you think? I have 4 plants.

LST during flower?LST during flower?
I'm pretty happy with the size and shape of them, except PPP3! However I'm not sure if I should continue to keep them as short as possible, or let them just grow up now.
I've never used LST before, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

Will this tape repair a broken stem?Should I re-wrap this broken stem? Bent with too much pressure and there was a snap, though not completely severed. I applied two or three layers of duct tape, not sure if the constant pull of ties will allow it to heal and repair. When should I take the tape off?

ScrOG tucking: expose lower smaller bud sites by tucking/compacting main cola branches?For a better yield, should I aggressively (but gently) bend main leading branches and tuck all shading fans to expose young 'undergrowth' branches (circled) and bud sites to light, or, inversely, untuck fans and straighten leading branches to give more light energy to them?
