Help with training
UpInSmoke420started grow question 5 years ago
Can anyone help me with LST? I'm a beginner and would like to give it a go to improve my skills.
Any tips on how, when and things to use would be amazing or even a link to a site I can research on.
What strain is better to learn LST are autos good for this?

Hello, lst is a way to increase yield, exposing more sides of the plant, to do it you can grab some tire and a pin and hold in the vase, then after a few days the new sides will start to come up and you just keep doing that until you reach the many sides you want, with that you need to create a shape, the most common I see is round shape, about the strains I think all the plants are eligible to do lst you just need to be careful to not hurt the plant, on the autos you need to be careful too to not train on the flowering but on vegetative.
If you want more information and tutorials just search on google “how to lst weed” you will find a lot of information about it.
Hope it helps!
Good grow! ✌️🏼🌱

Check out my grow. I use LST and SCROG on my plants. I try and get close to 100 tops per plant! Usually I grow 2 monster bushes but right now I'm growing 4 so i have a little less tops per plant.

Early flower and plant too small?Multiple questions: Is this the first sign of flower on the picture of D21 from sprouting? Doesn't the plant look to small for it still? How do I promote new node growth? Is watering roughly about 1.5L per week too little for nutrient influx?

Lower leaves too pale or yellowing?I am noticing the lower leaves of my Royal Critical Automatic to be much more pale green than the top of the plant.
Is this a nutrient/light/watering/lst stress problem if at all?

What should I do with my plants that have grown thicc to receive more light? - First GrowMy plants (1 auto, 1 photo) have grown a lot and are now pretty thicc. Should I remove some leaves to allow more light directly on the new growths from the nodes? More agressive LST? Leave them alone? They have grown in a weird pattern because of my LST attempts (see pic).

Enough LST for an autoflower?I was wondering how much LST and how intense the LST on an auto should be? I heard you shouldn't stress autos too much, that's why I'm extra careful and wanted to ask. (And yes I know it's overwatered, I'm letting it dry out at the moment)

ScrOG tucking: expose lower smaller bud sites by tucking/compacting main cola branches?For a better yield, should I aggressively (but gently) bend main leading branches and tuck all shading fans to expose young 'undergrowth' branches (circled) and bud sites to light, or, inversely, untuck fans and straighten leading branches to give more light energy to them?

Will this tape repair a broken stem?Should I re-wrap this broken stem? Bent with too much pressure and there was a snap, though not completely severed. I applied two or three layers of duct tape, not sure if the constant pull of ties will allow it to heal and repair. When should I take the tape off?
