update:
I realized that 3 weeks breaking soil was yesterday and not next Friday...ugh. its ok though, they seemed to have picked up growth a tad. I finally got the timer set up on 18/6. Also, as you can see I tied the babies down. Blueberry #2 and #3 I have at nearly 90 degrees :). They all are looking pretty Damn good I think. Blueberry #2 is the only one that looks sub-par, due to quite a bit of nute burn. I also killed a big nasty green spider that made its way my cab somehow...ick...I hate spiders. I know its sad, 6'4" afraid of spiders....Literally my only phobia... Disgusting... On to the pictures!!!!

Haha. I'm 6'4" as well! Don't like spiders.. I get some serious centipede dudes in my basement and scream like a girl. Here is a photo of what they look like!



You are brave doing LST; looks good though. I'm scared to try anything too advanced for my first time.

Looks like you really took your time with it and looks well done!

Loyal. they look a tad small for 3 weeks, heres why i think. the pots you have them in are HUGE, they are focusing on root growth right now and as soon as they get them roots situated you are going to have some serious explosive growth.

heres my theory on this, without a solid root system a plant has no foothold, so plants grow thier roots first then thier vertical growth second so that they have good "legs" to support that growth.

anyways they look great man, im not saying they look bad just a tad small for 3 weeks.

and why are you LSTing? is there a specific reason or just to experiment? i just dont recall you saying you were SCROGing or anything like that.

I've seen one or two of those Fuckers down in my basement too. I let them live though because they are spider killers!

I agree with them being small and pots being too big, but I didn't want the hassle of transplanting twice. They are small due to the pots as you said, the earlier lockout and a bit of a rough transplant. No worries though, they will be monsters :)!! I did the lst for a more even canopy and more "main colas". I thought about topping, but figured they have been through enough stress.

Haha, I hope that's how the conversation goes :). It's actually twine, not yarn. I felt yarn was too sketchy as far as strength is concerned
, although I'm sure it would have worked just fine! The whole lst deal is Fucking cool, Ive got multiple tops getting going already! Appreciate you stopping by!!!
