Am I doing LST training correctly?
WitekMajestatycznystarted grow question 4y ago
I'm at the beginning of Week 2 (AUTO-FLOWER), I'm trying to do some LST, little bending and nothing more. Can anyone please say if I'm doing everything correctly? I don't want to stress my lady, and I also won't do it bad way. I will be grateful for every tip!

Yeah it’s a good start friend. This is how I do it.
Not too much of a bend and after a few days you can incrementally increase the bend. Just a slowly over time keep adjusting and it will be completely fine.
Looks good and good luck 🤙

Haha wait you want to do "Low Stress Training" and not stress the plant? Naa you want to have the plant stress a little for its canopy and make those side branches!👌💪

Looks good to me, The only thing I would be concerned about is the wire your using is quite thin and could cause damage over time. Its best to get the fat plant wire for LST.
The bend you put on her is nice, She will point back up very quickly.

LSTHey everyone!
I snapped a branch very badly 4 days ago, i taped it immediately. One leaf died on that part of that branch but she’s recovering im sure because this branch started growing again. My question is how long should i wait before trying lst again on that branch?One week?Techniques. LST

LSTGood day!
I have a question for experienced growers who've used LST.
The stem usually branches out to 2 branches, one of which is just one big leaf and the other branch has nodes & other branches.
Do you put the branch with the big leaf below the rest, above or prune it?
Thx!Leaves. Other

LST after ToppingWhen would you start doing LST after doing a topping? I have topped about 3 days ago now, and have good growth from the new sites, about 1/2 inch of stock coming from the tops. Worried if I LST a little too early those new tops might not be grown enough yet!Techniques. LST

Low stress training. To undo and redo or leave them as is. That the question :PAnother one related to my lst.
So i got the hang of doing lst. I started off really early with all on the lst. The plant is fairly close to the ground. Can I undo the lst and let them grow a bit tall and then re do the lst later? Or leave it as it is and let them grow as is?Week 4

Did I start LST too early?At day 22, did I start LST too early? I feel that I may have stunted the growth a little from overheating, but didn't want to wait too long to start training. Also, would a higher-powered light cause less distance between the nodes, and therefore make LST harder/less effective?4y ago
