Extreme LST!!! OG KUSH #18

[Purpsdro420]

So this is my 2nd grow and I decided to try lst to yeild more. I think I did a good job lemme know know what you Guy think. I would like a more experienced growers opinion . I will keep updating with pictures as it goes along. This og kush #18 plant is under a 600 watt hps in an 18 gallon pot with fox farm ocean forest and grow tek veg and bloom nutes along with gh floroulisous.I changed the lights about a week ago to 12/12. It was vegged under a 250 watt mh for almost 3 months from seed. I had one seed and I was so lucky it wa female

[Purpsdro420]

[Purpsdro420]

Bump! Come on guys give me some more feedback

 

[Purpsdro420]

Here's today's updates. She looking pretty good, keeping a pretty even canopy. I put up a pic of my whole setup. Also a pic of a few clones off her . So if she's good I'll have a keeper and the little guy is chem dog X white rhino . I have a bunch of seeds but out of ten only one sprouted lol so hopefully ill get lucky and get a female. Soon I should have more casey jones and black domina going

Dude, she looks like a wicked bonsai weed tree, I'm jealous. She looks very healthy too, great spread on foliage.

 

[Purpsdro420]

Shit it took me about 3 weeks of lsting it everyday to get it to look that good. I gotta start doing it on the little guys soon. Right now I'm kinda in a pickle tho. Wether to cut the fan leafs or not. It should be done stretching in about 2-3 weeks and when it's done I'm either gunna deleaf it or leave them all. Not sure what to do exactly

 

[ChronicForLife]

To me it looks great. dont deleaf anything cause u seem to have good airflow under and in between leaves. always keep in mind the possibility of deleafing a plant can diminish the overall yield in the end. she looks healthy and once you switch her to flowering she"ll discard some of those lower fan leaves to free up a lil space of her own. mother nature tends to take care of herself sometimes she just needs a helping hand or string

 

[Purpsdro420]

Good advice. Ill be home in a few hours and ill post some updated pictures. I have switched the lights to 12/12 about a week ago so she's just starting to show some changes

Nice job for your first try LSTing. I have seen much, much worse.

 

[Canna Connoiseur]

Awesome dude. Looks like you pretty much know what you are doing on the lst front

 

[Stomper420]

Yea, take all the leaves off bro!

Noooo, I was kidding. Dont take any off. Thats like removing 1 fin from a fish.

 

[Purpsdro420]

Now I read so many forums on this topic and it seems 50/50. On my last grow I had 2 black domina lady's and I did a test. One I snipped all fan leafs after the stretch, the other I left everyone on. These plants were the same size same feed same everything but the one that I took the leaves off yielded 2.5 oz and the other I yielded 1.5 so It defiantly made a difference . But maybe this run ill leave them on and next run try removing them. When I get home Ill update with pics

 

[Purpsdro420]

Here's today's updates she's starting to show some buds. So it's time to start the day counter.

day 5

Lady is looking nice so far . By my count I should have at least 27-30 main tops. Pretty happy about that as that was my goal. Now for the bad news I found out a couple days ago that I had thrips, kinda bad too. So I got a can of pyrethrum fogger it worked great except it kinda burned a few of my little guys. Now I'm just gunna water once a week with ph'ed water with azamax in it. If I see any more activity from them I will bomb one more time. Thank god it's just my veg room. This lady will get lady bugs for now hopefully that will take care if the in my flower box . But this lady barely seems phased by them
