Hi. I started LST when I had 6 nodes ( 6 tier of leaves) just be careful you don’t snap your main stem when you bend her over. Good luck. 🍁

I will give it some time then. Mine has 3 nodes and not fully grown. I will wait for 4/5 fully-grown nodes.

Thoughts?
Should I be concerned or do something differently? The plants all seem to be very small height wise, but otherwise doing well.

How grow "mini" plants max 30-40cm high?
Hi! Because my tent is too small, I need grow my plants to be as small as possible. My ideal high is 30-40 cm max. What is the best way to achieve this? LST or TOPing? I think i prefer only LST so where is the best time for start? And the best floor for a "bend"? Thx!

What about poneytailing leaves for better sun penetration instead of trimming them ? (kinky post)
It probably exists but I've never seen it. I poneytailed leaves instead of defoliating them, since it's their ultimate food suppply. Mostly the big ones not near the buds, can I do that on the main bud leaves ? Anyone uses this technique ? Is that a bad idea ? Did I over do it ?

She's too tall! Advice???
One of my girls is much taller than the others. I missed a branch during LST, if that isn't obvious lol. Any advice on how to handle this? She's getting way too close to the light.

LST Advice
I plan to do some LST and wanted to do it simple like in the picture. But one of my plants is growing very bushy and dense and I'm concerned that I can't tie down the main stem. Is there any other easy way or should I not do LST at all?

LST during flower?
LST during flower? I'm pretty happy with the size and shape of them, except PPP3! However I'm not sure if I should continue to keep them as short as possible, or let them just grow up now. I've never used LST before, so any help would be greatly appreciated!

So we are at 4.5 weeks standing about 6.5 inches. Is it to early to start training? This is a strictly outdoor grow so mother nature is in complete control of lighting. Sun up 6am sun down @ 10pm roughly. Temps range anywhere from 75°-95° F daily & 65 -75 @ night humidity 70-90%

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.😎
