I actually tied them down right after reading your OG pst and said FUCK it i can do it too.. My first LST and top... I have topped each one 3x, 2x on main stem and 1x on lower stem , which is just as high, height wise , than the plants top... did that make sense.... about 4 hong bits deep right now

Good shit dude.. one question tho, why are you planning on untying them?? I don't think you should.. I'd say keep em tied, it isn't doing them any harm, you're just makin it grow which ever direction you want is all...

Of course this is my first LST so take my advice as you will but another thing I'd personally try with your girls is super cropping so you can have a more even canopy.. All the tops will be at the same height with little work.

Well i think I already have that in a way. I ahve topped them both several times. Bottom stems are just as tall as main stems...
Unless you mean to remove all the fan leaves and lower, low stuff.... i shall watch more videos today

Looking great man. Your thread has inspired me to LST, so I'm gonna do it right when I get home to my new afghan kush freebie I just sprouted.

I'll definitely be following your grow, so keep it up!

Lykackstar I just accidentally almost decapitated one of mine, literally hanging off by a shred, but I tapped her together with duct tape and she's bigger than the other 2 now! I'm sure you didn't kill them.

Alright so here's some more LST training.. She's really starting to take off. I might just flip the light switch, and put her into 12/12 next week! :-P

Today:
Some Super Cropping fun lol.. this branch that was topped into two was getting too tall for my liking, soooo.. I did some experimenting and after trial and error, successfully super cropped.... 1! lol the other I duck taped back up. (yes that's penguin duck tape!)

Trained even more.. had to run to Home Depot for more hooks, they work great in case anyone is looking for these. Hit up home depot, they're like 2 bucks for a 10 count.

So I've also tried to clone for my first time.. here she is.

And in my home made humidity dome haha.. I know it's not working as good as one, but it does the job pretty darn good, and best part.. didn't spend a dime. The water in the back is to help raise humidity.. Without that, the RH is between 30-39%.. with it, it's got up to the 40s and 50s even from time to time. The closer to the bulbs the better, the heat evaporates the water quicker.
(Don't worry the pot is pressing against it also, it's not moving anywhere.


And.. That's my setup.

no no dont , i was looking at something different .. Those things looked tied down more than I hve seen plants tied down b4. Nice job! Are you using metal U shaped hooks or something to the like.
I choose to tie over the main stem only and then let the bottom stems become top colas..... well the plan is too. 004.jpg
