- currently on 23rd day of flowering

Day 04 JAN06.09 - Paper Clip LST (home made method)
Day 07 JAN09.09 - May have leaked light into cabinet for several hours
Day 07 JAN09.09 - Rearranged paperclips and trimed 3 largest fan leaves
Day 09 JAN11.09 - Topped and vegging clone seperately
Day 11 JAN13.09 - White hairs visibly appeared on the 14th if i look closely
Day 13 JAN15.09 - Clone also showing white hairs

Thanks for the comments! I had trouble tying string from the branches to anything at all since i dont have that much space to tie it to some weights so i just poked some holes along the trim of the pot and stuck paper clips through them and onto the branches. Can easily be adjusted everyday and moved around etc etc... much better than string imo but thats jut for CFLs i dont know if the paper clips will heat up with HPS or MH lights.
I'm also interested in the yield. This is my first grow and i dont really know what to expect in terms of yield quantity. As you can see, i have quite a handfull of bud sites i cant wait to see how they form in the following weeks.

Stay tuned!

I never thought of LST'ing with weights, like string and fishing weights? I wonder if that would work. I wanted to LST, but I didn't really know how. I couldn;t stick paper clips into soil, cuz I am in a DWC setup. Plus, I'm on my first grow, so I just wanted to let it go and see what happened.
