LST Question

Should i be tying down all the fan leaves that block the light from getting to the main stalk???

um i dont think u tie down fan leafs just the stalk around whatever ur using, u can use a tomato cage or something though

Do you have buds growing on your stalk??? Stalks don't need light just your leaves and buds.

LST you tie down the branches.

If anything you can tuck leaves under and over each other to expose light to where light is being blocked on your lower growth that you plan to keep.

When I was doing LST, I would slowly train the main stalk/top down over the course of a couple of days once there were 4-5 nodes on the plant. After doing that, new tops would grow out of each node. Since the main top was bent down they would all grow back at the same heights. Once the new tops reach several nodes you could do it again if you want. I never bothered the fan leaves unless they looked like they were dying. I would prune those off once they yellowed.

Yeah, tie down main stalk and branching... at least that's what I do

i know the stalk doesnt need light but at first when you first get those little nodes starting to grow the and the the plant is kinda busshy so after a couple hours when it is standing up straight again not much light gets to those little nodes.

Hi guys , can anyone post a pic demonstraiting a plant with this lst thing yall talking about thanks
ill stayed tuned

The stalk getting light isn't what makes new branches grow its the distribution of hormones when you bend the top lower than other parts.... If that makes any sense

This is my 4 week old bubba kush seedling veggin and LST'd... You can use hooks, string... whatever
