Well we really can't give you any advice on your lst if this isnt even what you got going on then.
i still haven't taken recent pictures - at 4 i thought i was done, then i realized the top ones need to stretch out so that the other ones can catch up, so around 8 i continued

...idk if u mean u started at th
4th node or what exactly..then continued at the 8th.i t isn't even at an 8th so idk what u meant...I don't really know how an lst would work like that anyhow..not being a dick or anything...I fim at my 3d and begin bending my plants..I start inside and then go out btw so my plants get big and I lst the whole way usually...but I like to use my imagination a lil bit and to get the best results you wanna think ahead somewhat..but keep bending and topping things until u you have a full, even ,pretty canopy...then as everything grows you can just keep topping where u want or whatever works best for you.. training plants is fun for me...when they get all bushy and just have everything going and looking the way u planned it's satisfies the hell out me for some reason lol

I’m new but you haven’t really lst at all you should tie it down as close to the top as possible and you should have started maybe 3-4 week of veg it’s easier to start early when it’s very flexible my current plants are almost growing horizontally with the dirt.

i'm not talking about nodes. i was talking about times that i did it at and why it wasnt updated lol

Oh OK I'm sorry lol..but next time start topping at about the 3d node on a plant .. actually fim it..I think the first cut should be a fim ..it only becomes a problem if u grow big unsupported plants...once u fim I would then bend the plant and position the branches in a way that they will get good light and grow up to fill in the void spaces at the top or in a way that they will all catch up to each other..I guess lsting for certain results kinda also depends on the length of the grow..if you want a good even canopy u can do that in a fairy short time...but to fourm abig bush like the one in my avatar or something it will take a little longer and a different form of training ..like a fence or ssomething..it honestly wouldn't HAVE to be a fence but it would be so much more effort and work to try to get the same result another way...and that cage REALLY helps support those branches .. which in turn makes more energy go into making the plant growth and in flower more energy going towards making bud ol buds...I highly recommend support of some kind on just about any plant that is gonna produce a qp ..hell even less..but I'm also an outdoor grower...still I would support it..don't say to hell w lsting if this doesn't get the results you want..try it again with different techniques and learn from your mistakes and I bet you'll really like it....not saying u can't make a good lsted plant w this one..you def can ..it just might need to veg longer ..idk what ur lengths of veg are

I'd top some of the side branches and let them catch up to make a good even top..and I'd also top the ends ...idk how big of a space you will be able to work w ..but they can easily take up quite a bit of space pretty quick.. depending on how u train them

not a very large space at all i plan on only 5 plants during flowering

Can I get some opinions on my plant I’m not sure of the strain it was some bag seed seen the first white pistol around a week ago and now has multiple white hairs on bud sites I have LST for 2 weeks or so and it’s in around week 5-6 from sprouting

..it's a pretty healthy looking plant..pretty small plant to be flowering but some people flower them out small so..I don't really see much advantage to how u did the lst..some ..but you would want to veg that thing quite a bit longer and your lst will be much more beneficial

Thanks I don’t have my timer yet because somehow all the other equipment turned up before the timer so I might see if I can re veg it on 24/7 light cycle until I get the timer it’s only first week of flower hoping it’s not an auto

If your timer is going off and things aren't consistent your plant can go into flower or reveg ..I wouldnt start growing without a timer unless you run 24/0 or you can unplug them at the same time every day...idk but most ppl I talk to seem to like 18/6 better..iv always thought it would be a better cycle..I personally have never got an auto ..ever..but I guess times are changing so it's possible
