LST DAY
I'm stressing over LST. I believe it is time. Going to get some materials for it now. If you look at my latest video though you notice my first plan stem is super thick already at 19 days, did i wait too long for lst for that particular plant?

When to start LST?
Hey Growers, I'm a few weeks into my first grow and I'm keen to try some LST. Is it too early to start training them? Also, they're a short strain so should I even bother training them at all? Appreciate any advice. Thanks K

Have I done LST correctly here?
Have I done LST correctly here? - first time grower. Not sure if I should be doing anymore or wait till it grows into it. Also the leaves feel too low down and some of them are touching the soil.

Should I be starting LST. Been bending to get it used to it but not tied yet
I feel like the topic is very controversial about when to start LST. Some say 3 nodes some say 6. Attached is a picture of my biggest girl so far. Lots of new growth this week so far but not the tallest yet. Open to hearing from the grow community thanks

What Should I Do?
I'm planning on swazzing this next week and was wondering if maybe I should bend those long ass shoots to fall on my ring when I do? In my head it would even the canopy and get more exposure in the same. Am I wrong? Should I do it or just swazz and go? Any input would be greatly!

Fuck. First week of 12-12 and I almost accidentally top this plant. Broke the stem enough to cause it to bleed on one side. Think it will hold/heal?
Accidentally broke one side of this stem while attempting LST through a lattice. My idea was, instead of simply topping, to bend the plant downwards into the lattice to keep it down. Problem I'm trying to solve is plants keep growing too close to lights. Thoughts? ✌️

Grow method advice
I want to grow plants tall however considered doing LST. Any suggestions on growing techniques here, maybe topping instead? If i do LST does that mean they wont grow up tall? Was thinking of doing different methods but want them all to be the same height. Also want good yield.

Toping vs tucking the top down
This is my first time not toping my plant and am focusing on LST in by just tucking the top under my screen. Has anyone else done this and what were your results.

Is my LST done right?
Hi and TIA, following the advice I got from my last question, I decided to do some LST so I bend the main stem... my question is if I did it right? Also should I water my plant after this kind of stress? And lastly I did it just before the lights went out, is that OK?
