answered grow question 6y ago
right on time,very well done for a stocky plant like this.those lower growths will stretch to the light and it'll be easier to lst from then.only way to do lst wrong is to break the stem completely.well done

Top the plant again or not?
Hello growers, I have a question, I already top this 2 plants and Iām doing lst, and later Iāll use the scrog, but can I top it again? Should I do it or isnāt worth it? I read it could lower the finally quantity yield, and that is some stress to the plant. Is it worth?

Should I remove some of the dense foliage as I start LST, or wait? Other suggestions appreciated!
The Durban Poison and Jack 47 are very dense, with tight nodes. Iām beginning LST this week to get more light to more of the branches, but should I prune some of the excess foliage? If so, how do I decide what to remove? Thanks in advance for your help!

Too much LST action?
Is this a very stressed bend? I lost a tiny branch on that side that I had to snip, then I saw this UGH. I can't wait until this shit is second nature!

Topping or no topping? Or any training?
High! Im wondering if I should do any training to my sea of green grow. I mean I want to have a massive yield, but I donāt want them to grow in each other, so topping might be a bit over the top?šš What do you think? Thank you very muchā

Was this LST the correct move?
I felt like this girl was getting a bit too bushy and dense so i spread her out a little bit, I was wondering if maybe i was going a little too hard considering she probably wont stretch much more and is mostly focused on flowering.
