I guess the hst overshadowed the lst I did lol. I really put the plant through hell, but learning was my goal, not success. I tried a lot of stuff. HST is cool, but mostly seems unnecessary. After this experience I would recommend against hst for most situations.

HST has it's place. HST like supercropping is great for quickly reducing a plants height while spreading it out wider.

I trained these two plants using only supercropping. A lot of things were supposed to go different on this run, like not finishing them in 1 gallon pots lol. But things sometimes just happen.

I'm sure you learned a ton regardless. That's an amazing plant for a first attempt. Well done, enjoy!

I super cropped the shit out of that plant, I think it dramatically helped. The other part of me thinks a scrog on wheels would have done the same thing faster with the addition of more branch support. I was already punching outside of my weight class though lol

You're one of the few people I pay attention to on here 'cause you know your stuff, so I appreciate the kind words.

Great job for a 1st time! I wish you happy smoking :)

Just one thing, personally i wouldn't use that type of string next time. It can leave hair-like strings on the buds, and sometimes the bud grows with a string inside :D Or they can get stuck in fans and stuff.

Thanks, bud. You're absolutely right, I wouldn't recommend jute. It was poor planning on my part and it was this or nothing. I figured I'd have a fun time with tweezers later. Fortunately it will still be cleaner than most the local dope :P

Nice looking plant! Did you have a grow journal for it? If not what are you using for the growing medium? Looks almost like a living bed type grow. Hope the rest of the flowering goes well!

Thanks a lot. I started a journal for the first few weeks. The stewardship role left little energy to document it though lol

So it's in 15 gallons of coco haha. The ONLY benefit to that is only having to water once a day. Otherwise, it's a PITA. I've read there is no benefit after x amount of coco, but I bet the roots are having the time of their life lol
