Ive always said if you try LST you will never not train plants again!

Ive had a plant that went about 24-30" wide and less than 12" tall, by harvest my total height was about 18"-20" max. Like fifteen- twenty colas. In a three gallon pot.

In ground, you can keep tieng down throughout the season an have a fucking monster plant that takes up 20 linear ft of space and still reach your 4ft goal of height. Imagine...

Haha that would be awesome man, think of how many colas that would be! And imma little glad you said you used a 3 gal pot too bc i thought it was too small. I was gonna transplant into 5 gallon smart pots three weeks after June 21st. I would've just untied them after this transplant but I can just retie the colas if I do decide bc i tied to the pot.

Lighting those are some nice plants yo. Any problems transplanting those babies? When do you transplant and into what size pots. Thanks guys

they go into 25 - 30 gallon buckets till there done actually very easy to transplant let pots dry up a bit make some food up pour it in then transplant plants pack it all up and top dress i start my training @ young age prior to tranplanting them into 12" pots makes works out really well

Looks great man. What would be best to use for doing this outdoors and at how many nodes should I start doing this?

**passthat2me** · 05-26-2012, 05:25 PM

i start with clones...4 days after i plant...you see how small they are in the first pic...

Yeah but wasn't sure if that was when you first started LST or not. Where did you buy the things you use to support the LST?

The wire stuff sorry baked as fuck

I have only been able to ignore plants enough to not LST once...and I prefer LST..I find that untrained plants for one, get too tall, don't have as many branches as I want...and they start to fall over when the tops get big, and the bottoms never do...

missnu after reading your signature does this mean me using molasses as an additive to water deprive the soil of nitrogen? The only other fertilizer being used is some bone and blood meal that I added weeks before I started.
