1st attempt LST, doin ok??

Hello,

After researching LST'ing and topping, I gave it a try. Just tied a piece of thread to the top of about a three week old seedling, and tied the other end to the planting bucket. also did some FIM'ming, and at the very top I can see two stronger shoots starting to form, exciting shit!! but yea fimmed in a few places, so hopefully after all this work it'll be female..haha my buddy just discovered a couple hermies, no fun.. but yea, is this lookin ok??

U could bend her right down to horizontal if u wanted, then LST the new branches that grow in the opposite direction.

Just tie em down & train em to fill in the open spaces to get a nice even canopy,i would also definately get a thicker softer string to tie it down that cottons' gonna end up cuttin straight through her probly.

ok sweet thanks for the advice, I'll get some hemp cord tied on her so when you say LST the other branches, and to just tie em down and train em, train them how? just by having them tied down, "training" them which way to grow? lol sorry bout the confusion just makin sure I get it right

Yeh if uve topped her its gonna encourage the lower branches to grow faster rather than growing from the top,so u can tie all branches down to be at the same height & space them out so ull get even light distribution etc.

Heres a pic of my current plant (its outdoor but its the same principle.) Hope it helps.
