Show Me What You Got LST?

[Malphator]

A smallish update, after starting some LST on the lower branches, and adjusting my light's posititioning.



Figuring out what to do with those branches lost within the fan leaves on that J-like curve of themain stem is perturbing me. Ha.

Great thread everyone. I'm doing my first LST grow and first grow period in many years. They are Critical Mass from Mr Nice. I had some ph problems early on which caused some deficiencies so growth was stunted for a while but they are all good now. The two biggest bushes were transplanted and lst'd about a week before the rest so you can see the results of starting early. I'm almost certain the two at the upper left corner are male so I havent been training them lately, the other 5 are ladies. I will probly start 12/12 in a week or so and I'll give the occasional update.

Exactly Mcpurp. A pinch here, a little lst here. Maybe supercrop there. You can grow a plant into just about any shape you want.

yes u can,i like super cropping to, although i dont do it as much as i thin i should.

looks great, i forgot if you were in flower or not yet, if not the only other thing i would do to your plant is top the main top, the on inthe first `pic. it will allow all the other main shoots you are creating to catch up in hieght to that one.

Yeah. I'm almost two weeks into flower. My digicam is too crappy to get good macro shots of the preflowers, so I can get some verdicts, but it's starting to look pretty female to me. Not that I'd know from any sort of experience. lol. Oh well. Not like i have any other plants to worry about getting pollinated, so I'ma just let it keep growing. I'll know for sure soon enough. Heh.

 

[mcpurple]

since its in flower dont top it. and i think it might be female but note sure, females take longer to show sex and i thin i can see a white hair in your pics, i got my fingers crossed you got a she.

Yeah, I started lst righ when they recovered from their problems which was around week 3 I believe. They were only about 4 inches at the time due to the stunted growth. They did have about 7 nodes each though, they had really tight spacing underneath the cfl's.

The dog is a ausstralian shepherd/ mini pinchser mix. Weird mix I know but she's an awsome dog, very smart. She's a camera whore, I can never keep her out of pictures

i once started lsting a plant as soon as it had ts first set of leafs, the single bladed ones. and i once had a dog that was half pitbull and half weaner dog, it had the long body and shortness of a weaner dog, but had a huge pit head and huge muscles, and it also had the pits markings, it was a very cool dog. i have a pit who also likes to get in my pics, mabye if u want throw a pic up of her so i can see what the mix looks like

Yeah. At theres alot of small bulb-ish grows with two white hairs. I don't see anything specifically ballish yet. So there's hope. ha.

well you got your self a female my freind.

does heat stress make leaves turn yellow too??? its a bit brown and crisp on the tip too??? pretty sure all heat stress but since i been adding nutes tho too and a very low dose just wondering if its just heat stress temps in higher 80 87 usually once in awhile higher and i cant seem to get em down..... heat stress cause the yellowing???

 

[mcpurple]

i had my temps in the 90 my whole first grow and no yelowing at all, it could if the bulb is close to the tops and is to hot on the tops. you got an pics.

Got 10 female Northern Lights that got the full LST treatment:

That's some primo LST there bud! Did you do the UB's 4 way top/lst technique?

 

[zoso914]

When and where did you top for the 4 way I'm a newb to topping and any and all help is appreciated and I already Repped++ and will cont. to rep when and as often as I can.

that is my favorite right theri. topping for 4 main tops and then lsting those tops down so it bushes out very nice and wide. and i agree very good job on the lst

When and where did you top for the 4 way I'm a newb to topping and any and all help is appreciated and I already Repped++ and will cont. to rep when and as often as I can.

Basically I top normally after 3 - 4 nodes develop, and then top those two tops once they fill and have a couple of nodes each (usually a week or so later). Once four tops develop the plant is already pretty bushy from the repeated topping, and I simply LST those four tops. I give the plant a week or two to fill in, then LST the new growth. I can stop there for a fat plant with 4 strong colas, but I will probably continue to LST until flowering really starts up in August for 20+ tops total.

As you can guess, height is an issue for me.

Plus I love the hands on approach to growing plants, I find it very therapeutic.

if u topp right above the second node it will creat 4 main shoots and only having to top once witchis less stress on the plant. you got any pics of your plants if you havent posted already, its hard to keep up with whos plant is whos

I have tried the method for 4, but always end up with 2 so I simply repeat the process. Can't imagine that it causes much stress, the new nodes fill in within a day.

did you read the thread on it, every time i have done it i got 4 tops and sometime 5. and no it doesnt cause it tons of stress but it does cause more stress then topping one time. i just like to stress them as least possible.

 

[whynot]

Diggin' LST!

 

[zoso914]

Well I got two and left it at that. I'm now staring at a total of 8 tops which for a rookie ain't bad.Peace out all my fellow brothers and sisters when they due drop by.
