About LST cliips

I'm in the process of assembling growing materials for an operation consisting of four plants in a 5x5 space. I have not done this before, so you'll have to pardon my ignorance. I plan to use LST in tandem with topping/FIM'ing (possibly more, but those two methods for sure).

To tackle four plants using the methods I've described in a 5x5 grow space, would I need more than 30 LST clips?

I grow in two 2.5x5’s its like a 5x5 split in half. I grow two plants each. Thats like what youre trying to do. I just use a 6” mesh plastic trellis net. Any other netting made of fibers tend to shed them on your buds even if you dont cut them.

I use it just for support. A plant in each 2.5x2.5 corner if its nice and big dont really need scrogging it just made my clones flatter. I did it one run. I just use lst clips in veg like 3-5 each plant if needed.

I didnt use any lst clips this round of veg plants they just werent needed. Using them as a alternative to scrog didnt work for me, branches got too heavy to support themselves.

Strains will vary I only used a couple strains all year long this year but yea. I got a new one its super stretchy. Ill need a new approach. Heres some pics of my tent. Half the width of yours.

I just use it to widen the veg growth but sometimes they grow widened out enough no defoliation needed really.

For I forget must say those are clones side by side so they grew identical but if different strains its a bit trickier. Would be nice to have seperate lights over each plant if you can.

I just tape the net to a wall in each corner so its easy to undo. Cut to length. 5x 100’ roll. Fits right in. I top at 6th node. Then either scrog or just let it grow. I just let it grow this run keeping it simple and clean, less dehumitifier energy used.
