Actually about training

Does anyone have any experience of limiting a plant to just a certain number of branches (I'm thinking of growing a sativa plant in a grow tent but just training 4 of the branches in a sideways spiral and denying any new branches the chance to grow). It sounds a bit aggressive so I was wondering if anyone had done the last part, the attacking anything that tries to grow that's not in one of the 4 chosen branches.

Cannabis is pretty resilient and can be ” shaped / structure “ …. I used to do small SOG bags kind of like that for single colas.
There are diagrams online that highlight that spiraling shape you speak of , even bonsai like shaping. You can also look into manifolding techniques too .

Thanks. I'll have a go at that, spiralling the branches around the edges of the grow tent. I got a good feeling about the results of this one.

Just keep in mind the edges of the tent are usually where the light is the weakest. If you have an abundance of light, it's not an issue but if not you don't want most of your colas arranged out there.
