Hey all. I've been experimenting on my second grow and topped the one sativa in the garden due to space limitations. I'm afraid its turned herm but I'm nor sure. Please help! Also are my other plants OK as far as light height and the first step of lst? I would have started earlier but I'm learning as I go. Thanks!

i cannot see anything wrong with you're plants sir, i personally don't bend em down that much but shouldn't be too much of a problem i think...

thank you, i appreciate the fast response. Any idea if LST is best done from seeds or clones? Also is it best to begin lst when the plant is very young or wait until about a month of veg before starting? I am limited by height but not too terribly, I have a 7 foot closet for veg and a 9 foot tall grow tent for flower.

The spot I topped in the first picture has tiny little balls without pistons but the rest of the plant seems fine, how would I tell if it has gone hermie? I really don't want to ruin my garden.

personally i wait till it has afew nodes, doing it when they are seedling's is pretty much a waste of time in my eyes and topping can be done after the 3rd leaf set..and hermies are easy to spot they show the same sign's as males , you'll see balls that will open up and spread pollum...don't pull it unless you're certain...i've got 1 plant that looks hermie or could be a male but i'm not 100% yet till i flip it to 12/12 which will be today
