LST

Tarkovstarted grow question 5 years ago

Hello, sorry for the newbie question Is LST giving auto strains more time for the vegetative state? I mean, if you let them grow naturally without training, they stretch at the end of 4th week, but with LST they seems to grow one or two weeks more Am I wrong? Thanks

Thanks for the reply, maybe it's also depends on the strain...

Tarkov I have noticed this same thing but never encountered it in my grows. I think this is because you only get delayed flowing if the training is extensive but it's just my observations.

Won't cut yet or should I?Am I doing this right? The top arrow is the way I'm bending her, or do I bend her back, bottom arrow? I already stressed her out enough. I defoliated to get rid of shade, bent more. Tied down the twigs. Comments needed lol 👊

Lst...round stem?...like a spiral I guess.What am I doing?....see how I bent her almost out of the pot, I don't want that and don't have the space for that. I want to keep it simple and small. Am I doing right or did I do a shnoot.

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?
