Im currently growing blueberry auto an it’s on day 29. I have been doing LST for around 2 weeks now. I pulled the top of the plant down to the side of the pot an secured it down. Now some of the side branches are taller than the main stem. I guess the question I have is as the plant gets bigger am I supposed to release the main stem to let it catch up with the others or keep it tied down? I’m still new to growing so plz don’t crucify me. All info an tips are greatly appreciated.
 
Whatever branch is highest is going to grow fastest, can't recall the growth hormone(?) involved... So you can't use alternating LST to keep nice even branching...
(And yeah; pics always help :wink: )

Took a few picks right before the light came on. I side branch is almost 2 1/2-3 inches taller than the main stem

Nope! You did it perfectly . Keep that main stock tied down. Those side branches that grew up, will now be your top colas. If You want to train even more. One those branches get to be much taller than the rest. Do the same thing and tie those branches back down and let all the side branches grow up. At the end you should have something like this . Nice thing is can lst pretty much unlimited times creating 20-30 top colas. I trained this outdoor sunset sherbert all summer. Probably lst'd 10 times through out its veg cycle. Ended up with 45 top colas lol yielded almost a lb of bud off her!20170830_162232.jpg

Damn near. I got a total of 14.7 ozs. About 10 ozs of bud and about 4 and a half of popcorn bud
 
Just doing a lil update it’s day 34 I’ve been feeding the plant half strength fox farm nutrients an they seem to like it. Pistils are popping out all over the place. I have a question though. When should I switch up my nutrients. Currently I’m using grow big and big bloom. When should I start with the tiger bloom?
