Tool fan? Or just a tool? Or both? I’d let things stretch just a bit personally to get a bit easier leverage. But by all means if you can get part/all of it horizontal without any contact with the soil - you’re good.

In my diary, you can see and have something as a reference! I suggest you do it as soon as possible before the stem gets thick and hard to bend!

LST rookie Wondering about LST. I tried it this week. Its "outgrown" it. I wonder if I tie down the new growth and continue it horizontal? or move the tie down further up the plant to the end? I'm worried that on 2 trees I just "slanted" them and its not really a 90ish angle, is that ok?

I have a 1200W Veg/Bloom LED which is currently 20" above Martha. I am also LSTing her and am getting good solid growth from the lowest branches which are working to reach up. I am wondering if raising the light 4-6" and try to stimulate some vertical growth. Is this a good idea?

Disaster! LST rips off entire growth tip after first topping! Any advice?Hi all, I adjusted LST tension this morning and the entire growth tip snapped off. It was too small/fragile to tape so I put in rooting hormone solution and tried making a clone. What should I do with this plant now? Feeling discouraged.
