I don't get the idea behind an outdoors lst. Indoors I get it, but outdoors is confusing me.

Check out the pic in this link. https://www.rollitup.org/view.php?pg=faq&cmd=article&id=685 Those are all buds growing straight up right? Thats why i wanted to do it to get bigger buds. I am gonna bring them inside eventually but im not worried about stealth. So yeah mainly for bigger buds.

You seem to have the right ideas for what you wanna do, it just seems like what your doing is a little confused.
Lst is mainly used indoors, if for stealth or for a increased yield.
Outdoors lst is going to hurt your yield. The taller the plant gets the more intense the sunlight is that its receiving.
If growing out doors the best way is to let it do its thing and find its light to create big buds, you could get a couple of pounds of a tree like this outdoors.
If your vegin outdoors doing an lst and then bringing it indoords, then your plant will be really stretched outside and then come into flower.
If anything bring it in for an indoor lst and you'll do great outdoor just grow em natural.

Yeah thats why i quit doing it. I didnt feel i was experienced enough. My big plants were started outside and then brought in to flower. Thats what i was hoping to do with the little guys too. I have enough room now that i can just throw them in with the ones already flowering when im ready.

I have good news and bad news. The bad news is i havent checked on the babys since friday. It has been raining off and on here and when i did check on them they were soaked. Limp and laying over. The smallest one looks really stretched and its laying in the dirt from the rain. The good news is there was another plant sprouting up next to the little one. So i tried to fix them really quick. I pulled the 2 little ones out of the dirt and planted the one in its own dry pot. I took the medium size one and replanted it in the same pot but i put dry dirt around the plant. I didnt do anything with the bigger one but hopefully it pulls thru. I made a makeshift grow box out of cardboard and i have all 3 in there with a couple lights. I took some pics but the batteries died. No worries they are rechargeable so ill have them up in a litlle bit.

The first 3 pics are right after i saved them. The big one looks like a squirrel was in it or something. Looks like something was digging. The next 3 are after i repaired them.The last two pics are them in the box. I need to line the box with something.

I know i fucked it up good but its fixed now. The setup is better thank you.I just need to tweak this cardboard grow box a little. Im either gonna spray paint the inside or line it with tin foil. I cant afford mylar. I do have some good news though im gonna get a hps. Its not 400 watts or nothing but i figure its still gonna be better.Lithonia Lighting 50 Watt Bronze High Pressure Sodium Floodlight - TFS 50S 120 LPI M6 at The Home Depot. This is whats in my budget. lol I know its not much but I really cant afford much.

It has hairs on the top but it doesnt look anything like bud yet. They have been in flower for at least 2 weeks. They arent getting much bigger either. I thought they tripled in size during flowering.

i have seen it happen where plants will take over a month in 12/12 before showing hairs.
just takes patience.

I just got a 150 watt hps on ebay for 36.85. Pretty good i think and its better than the one i was gonna buy and cheaper. So in 2-3 business days im gonna change some things around. I'm not sure how im gonna do it yet but i will post some pics as soon as i get it figured out. I might put the flowering ones in a different box and veg in my grow box. (not the cardboard one)
