Hi everyone! so this is my first thread started on RIU.
That being said this is my second grow ever in the process. I decided to start LST and giving nutes and these little clones have taken off! I hope you guys can tell me what to do next in terms of training? These guys are just loving it !

Im on my first "official" grow and LST'd my girl for the very first time as well. You wont be sorry. I have a nice even canopy and everything (for the most part) is getting the same amount of light, Its looking good so far. I did it mainly for spacing concerns, but i hear it also increases yield! So cant complain there! Your plant's are looking good, keep it up!

Alright so update on Dec. 26,2017. They are almost ready for bud its been a month of veg and manipulation. Ithink I will switch the cycle in a week or so, I just have one question about manipulating... should i get rid of this long reachy/stringy growth? I'm leaning towards yes and just make 2 or 3 clones but i'd like a second opinion. Thanks in advance!
PS Sorry about putting this pics right in the body? I can never upload my photos through the site.

Matchsticks grow match heads. You will have much less popcorn if you focus on growing buds in the apically dominant tips. Strip off anything that is unproductive, especially tiny flowers.

What happened to the plant in the back, looks like the medium went anaerobic.


Next time, fill the pots a bit more too :) The more root, the more toot.

Hey thanks for the replies I appreciate it!
I knew someone would ask lol that was a mother i raised for my friend. I have stopped taking careof it as he was supposed to get it a long time ago. it needs a bigger pot or I need to cut the roots away a lil but I've taken care of it so much already lol I ahve no time for either of those two in the back. Unless i chop em in half they've outgrown my room

There any reason you shaped the branches to v out from near the soil line?

I like trimming those bottom branches to allow air to get under the canopy.

No specific reason honestly lol,I'll be the first to admit I don;t 100% know what I'm doing...haha shh. I'm using tape to hold down the brances so it just kind of got that way. I did some super cropping on the one next to it(no pics so far) just to try out different methods of gettingeverything to grow even... My next grow is going to be from seed so i can keep everything nice and symmetrical.

So after 6 weeks of organic nutrients and some LST I am switching to bud!! they've come a long way :) Just wondering if I should trim more little growth now or wait a few weeks? Thanks :)

so sorry for the quality! so its almost been a month (went 12/12 on jan 3 2018 )and i had a lot of issues so i didnt even bother posting...
But I got spider mites and had to fight them off and kinda figure my own way of doing it. some of the fan leaves have burned from the Bug BGon I got but they look way healthier.
anyone have tips and advice for pests? Would love some methods especially home grown organic ones
