Too old??? Never! haha Seriously - I don't tie mine down until they are in flower, if one of 'em gets too big and starts tryin to hog the light. But when they are older - start the training when they are thirsty, they are a bit more flexible then. And go slow - don't try to bend an older plant all the way down, in one step. Don't forget to tie a line to the base of the stalk, going the other way! They're strong - will uproot themselves trying to straighten out, if you let them!lst was what I was thinking, I just didn't know if they were too old/big for that...
I personally feel if you aren't using FF you probably should be lol. As far as not knowing, I wasn't trying to haze or anything, I was just simply saying go slow and they should be fine. I will do a Lst to help with your plants and you can follow along with me. Give me until the end of the day and I will post a thread dedicated to Lst for you. I would like to flower some of my bigger ladies (mothers) but know they will be HUGE and will need more room and light than I have. I will lst them until I feel they won't grow to the light too badlylol, Really!? Remove the pole!? haha jk!
& jeepers you 2! Act like I'm crazy for thinking they're too old, why don't yaI just didn't know, since ALL of the info you find out there says you need to do it within the first few weeks, like when they only have 3-4 sets of leaves, etc.
I kept the pole so that the bottom of the stem could stay grounded by that. Slightly bent them so they're just kinda flopped over, & going towards the side light. To be honest they seem pretty content like that! I figure tomorrow I'll pin them down & I'll probably work it into a loose coil as it grows. I figure that will be best so I don't have to rearrange lights, add lights for the length, etc etc.
And since I got my butt chewed... I went out & bought YET ANOTHER thing of nutes. This one is from a local nursery.. kind of like a special homemade recipe.
It's 24-8-26. I think the high nitrogen will definitely help them. It's been like 4 days since the last time I gave them a tiny amt of the other stuff. So I gave them a teeeeny tiny bit of this stuff. See how it goes I guess.
& closetgrowth.. Soil probably looks crappy because I don't feed from the top. I've got a bottom feeder pot, that's what these girls prefer! They spazzed every single time I've ever tried watering from above. Plus it's a mix of soils. It doesn't always look the best, but it usually works fabulously!
I know I probably should be using FF... But the stuff I got the other day seems to be working fabulously!! My baby girls are looking awesomeI personally feel if you aren't using FF you probably should be lol.
I know.. I was just pickin on you!As far as not knowing, I wasn't trying to haze or anything
Pick some up for me too!I may start a thread dedicated to "Lst" as well as "cloning" today but will get back to ya on it. I need to do a few transplants too as soon as I can. I need to pick up some more soil lol FF
