LST stakes and ties
Not_a_tutorial1990started grow question 2 years ago
I have a question, do I remove the tie downs and stakes I used for LST? And if so when do remove, before flower?
Also did I train them too close to the pot?
First pic is start os LST and second is as of today [foliage and minor training for better air circulation]

No and no. I keep mine tied down close, and continue to till they stretch even then bending outer branches out wards if i got room. I remove when it gets good and woody. When I know it won't flex at all.

First LST attempt, any good?How did I do with my first LST attempt? I know it's a bit of an artform but one looks a lot prettier than the other! I was trying to bend them over and tuck to expose all the likely budding sites to light. Anything I should do differently? Thanks!Week 3

Are my plants already starting to bloom or not?I got 3 questions:
1) Do my plants actually bloom or not?
2) Do I need to add red light now? (For now I have 6 "cold" bulbs by 25 watts. Should I change all of them or just ad 2 for beginning?)
3) How can I boost stems growth or it's too late?Buds. Other

To LST or not to LST … that is the questionShould I LST?? I’m growing ILGM OG Kush auto flower. I know I probably should, but part of me wants to just let her rip and see what happens all natural. However I’m in a small tent (18x18x56) and the website says the plants usual height is about 40 inches. What would you do?Week 2
