4 Week Pistils

They come back in a few hours sometimes if they’re still in veg mode.

I did a couple supercrops deeper into flower and they were much less resilient but still healed fine.

after bending the tallest cola like that, how long did it take to get back healthy - and did you bend it in flowering or in veg? (i guess it depends on plant health and other factors) but is there an average time?

I transplanted them out of starter pots on 7/12, and started LST on 7/14. Noticed pistils on 7/18 when that first above photo was taken.

I start LST as soon as possible. I guess average would be about day 14 from sprout, this one was just a little after. When I pull it down and most of the plant won't be touching the pot. Usually pull the one low leaf off the bottom.

@Misfit1984 Not trying to hijack your thread, hope this info helps.

For the most part no dmg is done when bending. So no recovery time. Unless you hear a snap crackle pop...then uh oh!!!

Bending the main stem down is def how you should be growing autos. Don't top, just bending.

My current auto. LST won't stunt a healthy plant. Makes a big difference.

Picture from yesterday at day 35. Looks funky because I keep mangling it (supercropping) to make it fit where I want in the tent.

That is insane I love it.
Mine is growing pretty fast now I'd say around an inch or more per day. I hope to eventually get where yours is at!
