4 weeks in first top n LST

my 2nd outdoor grow and finally wanted to try and top and LST my babies.
These pics are from the last two days ( yesterday , today )
I first tried to lst them and wasnt to happy with how it looked , so this morning
I made it look and feel better as far as I am concerned.

mayb someone can let me know how they look and if i am doing ti wrong or right.

thanks.,
this was yesterdays attempt ( 1sst ever try ) and they actually began to bend within a few hours.
THese are from today and my 2nd attempt to make the LST a tad more pro looking an effective. I can already see the topping effect and also how the plant is begining to grow more sideways and up as opposed to my last grow with my top and or lst
hOW DUMB OF ME TO NOT DO THIS WILL ALL MY GROWS LOL, live and learn

Looking good..
I'd lollipop a few but I am kinda neurotic about lolipoping at an early age too

Yeah my 1st scrog is waiting to be started.. plants are about 1inch now.. last year tried the tall ladies.. and hated not seeing the pests on the top.. this year I am trying one single scrog and will super scrop/lst the rest..I dont want anything more then about 5 ft..

Your on the right track
Try to support the main stem so you your plant will grow upright and less stress on the roots. Sorry about the pic, macro was off but you get the idea

What ^^ he said.

And bend her all the way down.
Get your top cola lower and really get some of those lower shoots moving.

Nice!

I see what you mean. Are you saying that I am doing it wrong , or just to tweak my technique a lil.
If iv leave them this way is that bad ?

Not wrong bro! That's how I do mine, and they do great! Always worried about stress on roots but never had a problem. Just keep tying that main top down.

HOw long should they remain in this position..... right before pistals come , or during ?

More pics from today and I can see how new tops everywhere , almost counting 6 on each.

Personally I leave them tied harvest.

I like to leave them tied down until a few weeks into flower then untie them after...I feel it gives them some room to breathe....I consider plants living beings and treat them as such lol I don't have scientific evidence to back my method but I never had any problems

upddates on my ladies.
I think everything is looking great , no sex yet but i think its close View attachment 2654514View attachment 2654515View attachment 2654516View attachment 2654517View attachment 2654518
