When do you start training ?

[Green Refuge]

I have a couple plants that are about 3 weeks old is there anything I can do to them now to improve the final product ?

I start training when I get a well developed 5th node and continue throughout grow, But I do autos.

I usually start LST around 14 days sometimes a little before or after depends on what stage the plant is at. The earlier the better though I find.

Man that looks beautiful. How's watering those pots with holes on the upper part ? I got a few cheap ones from htg supply store and didn't realize they haf holes from top to bottom.

I start LST around the 3rd week. I'd say you can start now if you want

Nice. Do you always defoliate your autos under the 3rd node before lst?

I remove under 4 @Millo because it never amounts to anything and makes for easy access and improved air circulation.

I water slowly using 16oz. condiment squeeze bottles and have no problems.

Its a good time to top her
Then lst the side branching once its long enough

Top them. Give them a crap ton of light, and let them grow I say.
Could be wrong though...

For me. I wait until the top of the plant can go slightly over the side edge of the grow bag when I bend it.

Easy to tie down and keep the top below the the other nodes looking to form. Once they grow out repeat that same process in different directions.

That original top will continue to grow. I pull that down again and curve along the side of the pot until all colas are even.

I rarely top anymore. I don't really see the point.

Not too small at all to start LST.

LST started at day 15.


Turned into this. LST only.
