started grow question 5y ago
Does LST with galvanised pegs (rounded edges) damage the root system? Is what I have done here OK? Comments appreciated

Don't worry about them dude. Lots of us use them or poke other things in our medium to train plants.

I do what you’re doing and I don’t stress with it. Poking a few roots as you push into the soil isn’t really detrimental. Exactly like Mickey said. It looks good. Cheers 🤙

TRAINING TOO MUCH??
Does anyone think i might be going overboard with training? Plant is around 60 days but about day 21 had health issues stripped back and it came back thick. Tried to leave as much plant as possible and focus on training to eeduce stress. Thanks for any and all replies!!!

Topping and LST autoflower
I have a 2.5 week old seedling that is only ~3 inches tall, but I just topped/fimmed the 5th node. I plan on starting LST, how long should I wait before tying them down? She is currently in a 3 gallon.

Topping for scrog
I'm putting 3 plants into scrog net. Would it be best to keep these topped to produce 4 mains so I can spread them evenly sideways as opposed to the way I normally top for 8 mains? In a 4×4 tent.

LST timing
I just topped my plant today, repotted and fertilized. How do I know when It’s time to start LST? Obviously I wanna give her like 5 days to recover and get used to her new pot, but I really want to maximize this yield. Thanks!!’

Плохой старт
Интересно узнать. То как я поиздевался над малышкой и затянул вегу, повлияет на качество и колличество исходного поодукта. похоже получился фотопериодный экземпляр вопреки моим предположениям. Родителями были два авто и папа фотопериодный АК-47

Bending branch
I decided to bend the branch to form a bush.The stem was quite thick and when I bent it, I formed a large bend radius, but the next day I noticed that it took a sharp angle. How bad is it, and if it's bad, how to fix it? Thanks in advance🙏

Topping or no topping? Or any training?
High! Im wondering if I should do any training to my sea of green grow. I mean I want to have a massive yield, but I don’t want them to grow in each other, so topping might be a bit over the top?😄😉 What do you think? Thank you very much✊

Make LST or not?
Is it better to continue with defoliation only and switch lights 20th of January, or make some lst now and let her evolve longer (until the end of January...)? She had topping already💀

is LST correct?
Any thoughts on the LST? Its day 22 for her. Am I overdoing it or can I do it better? The stem is in a very sweet spot where it bends very easily. Any help appreciated. Thanks

Fixing lst (late)
I started 'lst' a week ago (too late), and couldn't tend to it due to circumstances. I am not sure how to handle my girls, they are now pretty tall and stopped bending. Could use some advice for fixing my lst
