ChopperMcOG

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

How do you measure your plants correctly?
When measuring the height of a plant do you measure from soil to top of canopy or is it the length of the main stem? MIne are trained sideways.😎

3 NL Autos from ILGM all started at same time, but plant 2 received no training: did training DELAY or STUNT plants 1
Plant 1 has healthiest foliage but smallest buds. Plant 2 seems farthest along but stalling out. Plants 1 & 3 fattening. Just delayed? Seeing amber trichs here n there, but lots of clears/milky all over. Flush plant 2 for a week or two and harvest but let 1 & 3 go longer? THX!

Low stress training wrong?
Did I train this right, or completely wrong? She will pop back up if it is wrong. I turned the lights off for bed just now.

LST wire damage
I have damaged a little my ladies with this really bad and sharp wire. Should i worry a lot or everything will heal naturally? It's not that the wire is that bad, it's just that i started lst early on and the plant is very soft.

She's getting too tall!
2x2x4 tent, flipped to 12/12 A week ago, and removed my LST plant ties at the same time to make watering easier. She's getting tall though, and now I'm thinking of putting the ties back on. Will that even help? Should I try something else? the pics are about 1 week apart

How far into flower is it okay to bend (LST)? Am I there yet?
I see a couple little flower hairs coming in on the cheese plant. I've read that you are not supposed to train auto-flowers very far into flower, but I was hoping to get one or more bends in over the next week. Anybody have any thoughts?
