Hey guys, I have a quick question for you! Since I am performing LST on my plant how many nodes should I wait for before I pull her down. I have been LSTing every other node. Should I be waiting for 3-5 nodes before I pull her down again?NEW AT THIS

about 4 nodes i think but it all depends on how far along u are but every other node should be fine mate

Well the reason I ask is because since I am pulling down the top it takes little long for her to straighten back up and I feel I will have a more even canopy if I wait a couple nodes then pull down.
This seems like it may take forever to go around this big bucket but patience is virtue.
I will be posting up a new pic tonight.

Part 3 LST-Day 35 from seed 5 days in VEG. Well I'm going to give everyone a NEW pic now instead of later! I hope you like how well its growing now. I just performed another LST.

can u please speed up the process? im very excited about your grow. i know your going to ahive your goal.

 

[doggyd]

I wish I can make all this go faster. I need more bud too smoke over here, running out of bud from last grow!

 

[doggyd]

One thing that is bothering me! Its going to be a challenge to water her when she starts getting bigger and filling the rest of the pot! Any advice for watering her when I get there?

Hope you reach your goal.

Good luck.

It might be helpful to do a but of pruning at this point, just the big leaves that are covering your smaller growth tips.

As the plant gets taller, you can prune the bottom completely, no reason to have leaves or buds in the dirt, that will make it easier to water. Kinda like lollipopping.

I think you will have problems with your model. You aren't accounting for all the space the branches are going to take up...

For example, here are my 4 plants LST'd 3 weeks in veg. There's no room to keep wrapping the main around the pot lol.

Here is a pic I just took of what it looks like from underneath! 7 days into VEG!

Thanks guys. Just like someone posted. I may not even make it around the whole bucket, so I may have to reconfigure my design. I may just reach half the bucket. This weekend will post up a nice pic of the top view of the plant! Stay tuned and thanks again for following this thread!

 

[doggyd]

Well I just went ahead and added a tempered glass to my hood and also added exhaust fan to remove heat. Lets see how this goes for the grow!

 

[chronichaze]

Good job . that new fan and hood will benefit you greatly. That is some nice undergrowth!!!

Do you think its possible for me too Top every shoot once its gets closer to Flower! If so, do you think I will have room for them? How long does it usually take after topping for the plant to start growing again! I am noticing when I LST my plant it takes 1 whole day for it to return back upright!
