Does this LST look right?

[rlax106]

My plant is about a month old and I was wondering if i did the lst (low stress training) correctly...

thats a clone huh?

 

[Mongala420]

wow. Wierd lookin plant

ALrite that plant is pretty tall buddy. You should of started at the top so ur branch doesnt look like its gonna snap in half at the bottom. Then you work youre way around the plant. I did it when my plant was 9'' tall, you can see how many tops i got in my sig. You also need to place a string (yarn is best) at the base of it so you dont uproot it. That thing is very tall though. lol

yea I agree. How long has it been out there?

u can use that horse shoe like thing and tie the plant down some, clone i can see

I would try to start from the very top, take it out to another month! I did a 6-8 week veg with lst. As long as u got the light

Edit: Even the stems that are in the middle of the plant, strap them down too. Up to you though!

Thanks thats good to know. Does it look too stretched?

yea I agree. How long has it been out there?

Its been there for about 50 days... i know it looks small for its age but it doesnt get A LOT of light it gets an ok amount tho especially recently

It's actually not a clone, why does it look like one? Your the second person that mentioned it so just curious.

Ok I will try that, thanks. Do I leave it bent over throughout flowering and leave the strap or do i have to release it at some point. The side branching doesn't seem to be triggered but i can see the pistils coming out after discovering it was a flower. Is that normal to have the pre flowers and no side branching?

You can leave them strapped as long as they are not snapping throughout flowering. Try using just some yarn and put some hooks down in the dirt, tie it to that. She will get use to being tied down and you can eventually do some more bending (make it tighter) as the weeks pass by.

Ok sounds good, thanks for the help +rep

Your plant is stretching because of how you pinned it down and the fact that there isnt a lot of light coming down on it all day, but dood dont worry about it cuz its outdoors and everything stretches outdoors.
Another thing is that if you had pinned the top of the plant so that the entire girl is bent over, all of the braches nodes will produce bigger Nugs for you at the middle and bottom sections of your plant.
Stretching could lead to mean that its a male very possibly.

I agree. Lst creates lots of bud sites. Im not to sure about ur last statement AK47, thats the first time ive heard that..but ill keep it in mind. Good luck!

personally I tie mine down with x mas hooks. You want to tie them down when they are fairly small and bendable.
