What is the point of tying down plants?

Outdoors and indoors I have tied plants down and over.
The primary reason is to reduce height.
Outdoors you can tie them or train them to do some funky things.....
You can change the shape or profile of the plant so it's not readily recognizable as the dread ganja. Better stealth.


This is a pic of a plant I tied over in a window box container....I had to shorten plant to get closer to light in stadium arrangement.

Hi Wavels... can you please post the picture HERE.. I could not get into the link without regestering.. cheers

Reasons to tie down a plant...

1. Allows better light penetration (opens up the plant)
2. Keeps the plant low (below fence line, out of neighbors VIEW)
3. Disguises plant (blends with other plant)
4. Keeps branches all the same HEIGHT (allows better light penetration)


You can train the plant any way you would like. Pulling the branches away from each other and making branches grow horizontaly can significantly increase yield..
