Hey, i saw someone to suggest on reddit that people put their seeds near the side of the pot for big plants. Anyone on here think it is a good idea?

I only do this when I let the plant grow up then bend it over to keep the branches in the center of the pot. Then I take the side shoots and spread them like a rib cage and it all lines up in the middle of the pot

TBF, that is the whole internet. I am a member of Reddit groups and forums like these. I have seen equal amounts of steaming "donkey plop" type information on here, Reddit and other forums. I have also see good information too. There is no single font of all knowledge.

I do this too. I offset the plant in the pot to make pinning them out easier and more symmetrical.

Thank you guys for your input . I wasn’t too sure. Seemed like it might be a good idea because of being easier to LST and also thought the roots would air prune earlier causing a whole bunch of roots to branch out.

actually, if you have experience with the strain, and intend to do a lot of lst to it, it may not be a terrible idea, but if you expect it to grow well, without the need for extended lst, then always plant in the middle of the pot.
