Bending branch
Jakedstarted grow question a year ago
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🙏

No worries, you accidently did supercropping.. she will bounce in a few days, may form a knuckle where you bend, thats also normal.. just keep in mind, when you bend the plant one way, support the mainstem by tying it with rope in the opposite direction to prevent any accident as it grows

I’d leave it, it mostly likely will recover on its own.
If not, You just topped it and will need to veg a bit longer. But will have a much bushier end result.
The plant is incredibly resilient!

Nothing to worry about.....no need to "fix" anything, your plant will be just fine!

All good she mega cropped her self, but these thin wires you using isnt good. Wires can later cut stems, use pipe cleaners or hair gums.

How and when to train?Hi,
first grow here. My automatics are at their 16th day above ground. I think I have to top one of my plants to keep her height in check. Where and when should I top her? should I rather only do LST or maybe even wait for now (but they are automatics, so I should be quick?)?9 months ago

Too many buds because of LST? A yield full of popcorn buds??Should I cut off more buds to get a higher yield? I am afraid, that she will develope too many popcorn buds. Or is she looking allright and I can get a good yield without stressing her any more?

whether I should transition her into the flowering stage or wait a bit longerHey everyone,. I need your opinions on whether I should transition her into the flowering stage or wait a bit longer. I think I may have trimmed the main stem too much to the side, and I'm a bit worried. The pictures and the video is in my diary if you have a look I'd be gladTechniques. LST

Hi Grow Community! I am trying LST for the first time. Plant is about 14cm hight. As far as I know I need to bend the stem until it's horizontal with the soil. But the stem of my plant is already so thick and solid. Does it need to be rly horizontal?Should I try and bend it more?Week 3

Outdoor growers: fim/top?I want to make sure to clarify that this question is only for outdoor growers with a photoperiod limited solely by the nature of the changing seasons.
Should I even bother with fim/topping? Is the juice worth the squeeze? Let me know your thoughts, or even better, resultsSetup. Outdoor
