So it turns out i might be going to get seeds sooner than i predicted as im going to be in the area of the seed bank. Any suggestions for what I need, which is: Small plant overall, low odour, and Anxiety and nausea are a big one..imma check out the medical part of this forum as well... Autoseed 12/12 or whatever it is a good idea?
Gonna put up some pictures of its progress in like half n hour...tho the progress isnt huge whatsoever

lst is fine any time. the more you do during flower, the more stress the plant takes but we are talking minimum stress if you are just spreading her out. it might slow her for a day or two but then she'll come back better than ever after getting light to all those new places.

on the seeds, that gets to be a very involved discussion
i've never done autoflowers, some like them, some don't
you can get non autoflowers to fit in small places, which is what you're doing now
you can also reveg and clone a regular plant, just in case you find something you want to keep, autoflowers don't reveg(as i understand it)

yeah i've been looking into reveg/cloning. Im assuming that Indica's are better than sativas for what i want?..as far as how big the plant goes? What about indica over sativa with anxiety? got no idea about different strains n anxiety

no simple answer
i'll try to summarize a reader's digest version
some sativa dominants are probably not good, some Hazes seem to have a bad rep with anxiety, some Skunks too, but more mixed on that
some folks don't do well with indica's, which makes it hard to generalize
my experience is you don't want the strongest, some strong weeds will make things worse, not better
strong indica's may turn off anxiety, along with everything else, and not too functional for daytime
so far i've tried nl#5, brainwreck, pure power plant, and california orange
the nl#5 was a bit too edgy, at least for 1st half hour, go figure
the cali-o has probably been the best so far, it's not real strong, but it does help

yeah definitely ask the staff they'll 'generally' know their shit.

if you look for a strain that's not too high in THC, look for say a 10-15% BUT make sure it has a CBD content in there too, I think as the science suggests the THC is very psychoactive and 'up high' but the CBD is an anti psychoactive which counteracts the 'up high' part and adds the mong so your not freaking out, I've very rarely gotten any kind of paranoia on a good indica with a reasonable CBD content (which I assume paranoia and that kind of thing are what you want to avoid) it's the strains with very high THC and minimal to no THC that get you mega stoned but the come down can be quite bad :)

might be a reasonable start, not familiar with the breeder
i would say don't rush to order, take your time and read up on experiences with a strain
found this part to be as much work as growing, paid off with most of my choices being reasonably good results

So haven't been able to find a good source on how to LST a young plant..atleast not anything with sufficent pictures. I think i got it down but just to be sure. Basically all you do is keep the main stem in place by tieing it down and than tie down the top of the plant to either the pot or tie it down with a stake. easy enough?

soo, i did it ..not sure if i did it right..but i did it...the whole stem wanted to come out..started seeing the bottom white part n shit. who the hell knows...not I. Now its time to just let her grow n see how it turns out i guess

hopefully i didn't uproot it and damage the plant? anyone experience this?

yeah, it did fine...though im not possitive im doing it all right. Had a set-back these past couple hours though......seems my first grow is just full of these.....mom found my grow-box lol...wasn't so funny at the time, but its all worked out. The set-back was that she turned off the lights when she found it.......my lights were going 10am/10pm.....she said she didnt remember when they went off but was around 3.....i came home and found them off so turned them on..not sure if that was the right thing to do....but im clueless as to how to get it back to its normal schedule now...other than just go back to dark until 10am....hopefully from now on its just updates on the plant no more setbacks :P

when LSTing, do you just tie the main stem? or keep bending as much as possible to keep it small and the main stem exposed?...I tied the main stem, but its grown a bit and starting to bend back up....so basically it bends..goes pretty much horizontal for a bit than starts going back up. Been doing research on it, but still don't completely get it
