How do you LST? Show us.

I generally LST to keep mothers for good cuttings or to maintain height when it becomes an issue.



My old, haggard Grapefruit mother being put into flower finally.



Her stem.



My attempt at LST'ing a potential Neville's Haze clone.

I LST by tying the main branch to the side of the pot using twine. I use unfolded paper clips to train the nodes. The Neville's was originally meant to be a mother that I cloned and gave up on, hence the dense vegetation.

so why do you call it low stress training.. it seems a better name would be, folding or bending your plant. looks awesome btw

Are you serious? You are training your plant while putting a low amount of stress as to not harm the plant

because any changes to a plant that isn't natural will cause stress. cutting or topping will cause alot more stress and may develop seeds. Or less potent buds and yields.

Has anybody got any pictures of a LST going round the pot? Shown in that tutorial on a site I'm not sure I'm allowed to mention

But yeah, sorry for the vague explanation
