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!

So far, so good! If I were you, I'd let them grow out a bit before doing more - you're getting quite a bushy thing there and the worry is the leaves all rather mashed together which will give you trouble if your space is too humid so make sure you've got your fans going at least gently ... I don't see that you're recording humidity and that's something you should measure and be aware of... the other thing I see in your diary is that your pH is a bit too high... yes, they say to grow cannabis between a pH of 6.0 and 7.0 but the mid-range of that is better - and as you get into flowering, you're going to want to lower it even more - between 6.0 and 6.3... But you're looking good and going strong! Good luck the rest of the way!

High Jelly, you did great! You want to achieve that all the branches will grow till the same height. That there is enough space and airflow between the branches and no gaps where the light from you lamp gets lost. Rememver that LST is a marathon not a sprint. Check the plant 3 times a week till the plant finished streching after the pre flowering period. When the buds start to swell you can stop with the LST because the plant will not grow any ore from then just the buds. Look at the side of your plant. Is there enough space between the leaves and branches. And are the branches growing equally in height. And look from above are there no large gaps between the branches where light gets lost. Thats's all folks! 😋

Its looking good. I like to update my LST every few days as the plant grows. As long as your gentle it will be ok. To much stress can snaps branch so low n slow.
