A little video I threw together. The last :36 is a time lapse of the grow to date from seed.

Since this will be my mother I am going to LST her to get a horizontal main stalk and then take clones from the vertical secondaries.

I am going to LST 4 of the cloned and super crop one, to take five to harvest. I'm looking for minimum 200g dry to a stretch of 500g. Anything less than 200g will be considered a fail.

May be tomorrow or monday. I'll try not to bust it off as I really do not want to fire up the cloner yet.

Just lay the pot on its side, the plant will bend towards the light with zero stress and zero chance of snapping.

After a day (or two at the most) stand the pot right way up and secure the plant then continue LSTing as normal.

Using the light source to train my plants is what I refer to as ZST (Zero Stress Training).

I love the determination. I'm rooting for you. Anything over 14 grams on my DSG would be a huge success given it would be my first female EVER. ha

Square section pots are ideal as they don't roll around ... I did notice that Bonzai is using a square pot :-)

As for the dirt comming out, when the soil is moist very little soil will come out ... just a few crumbs, and it is only a temporary measure while the plant bends.

I attach a frame to the pot to train the plants ... the main stem of my plants will grow in a straight line.

Here are a couple of pikkies, one when first laid on their sides and the second one after the plant has bent itself.

I'm going to give the ZST a shot today, I attached the wire frame and will take pics of the process as soon as the camera batteries charge.
