Can weed be grown sideways.

Can you fool the plant to thinking it was growing upright the whole time?

Someone please tell me they tested this?

Yes it is called training and many people do it.

You take string and wrap it around the stem during vegging and take a hook and take the string and wrap it through a hook and put the hook in soil and the stem will grow horizontal.

Yeah, It is great if you are growing in a small place and you don't want the plants to hit the light.


Also no problem but I would not do it until you are the 2nd week into vegging so the stem is strong enough.

Thanks for the tip the only thing ive been thinkin about is watering the plant after it place it horizontal. Maybe spray bottle of water 3x a day?

Well how old is it?

If it is still vegging I would but if it is there should be NO reason to water it three times because it may be dry on the top but the roots are still wet.

The container remains vertical and the stem is trained horizontal. I have done it many times and it works great. All my mothers are LST'd and grow horizontal. I drill some holes in the top of the container and use string to tie the branches horizontal.

Yes tying or LST...see advanced grow tech. in FAQ.. the plant in my avatar was 5'+..I tied it at almost a 90 degree angle..notice all the small branches near the stem stand up and get colas...at cut I have 8 big and about 10 smaller tops... that pic only shows about 1/3 the actual plant..
Works great......... Luck

Click to expand...

A few spritzes OK..I give water every 3-4 days only..I only spray seedlings..You need to let roots look for water to force root growth..
