first LST

Though not a bad first lst, I like to bend my ladies as close to 90 degrees as possible. In a few days I'd try to bend a little more if possible.
This is whats up! You get the most out of lst and supercropping with a 90.

Have an anchor (something making sure the base doesn't tilt, pulling from the base in an opposite direction as your LST) and LST from a point closer to the top. You want the stress to be in the stem more than the root system.

At that point in veg, you should be able to get it at a 90-120 degree angle. I wouldn't worry about the leaves touching the soil, it should react within a day or two.

Yes an anchor! I definitely feel like I need to put one in right away

This is my whack at LST training and I'm pretty sure I started early
Cause I'm noticing a slow down in growth should I keep the string tied like this or should I only do it for a couple hours then cut the string ?

Is it okay too do topping before th 6th nod?
