My 400w LST & Mainlining Closet Perpetual Grow

CruzinPenguin · May 1, 2013

Hello everyone.. I've been reading a shit ton about LST so I've decided to give it a go after harvesting 2.5 ounces off my first grow.

I was a little disappointed in yield but the taste made up for it! Here's a shot of each still curing in jars

I'm giving myself a simple goal with this time, Get more than 2.5 ounces with this one plant. This is when LST came into consideration..
Anyway I'm growing with CFLs until I can afford a 400w HID kit, (I got a youngin on the way, so that is my priority)
Happy Frog organic soil
Here she is:

on 4/20 I decided to give fimming a try.. I didn't do it right though. I'll try next time.

Then I finally moved her to the closet

And transplanted her into her final home

First try at LST

For Vegging I'm using:
DynaGro Liquid Grow
Botanicare Cal-Mag
Humboldt County's Snow Storm Ultra

Flowering will be using:
Beastie Bloomz &
Humboldt County's Snow Storm Ultra

Soo... what do you guys think?
Any tips/criticism/suggestions welcome!

I'm going to try LST in the next couple weeks when I start some new plants. Looking good.

Look at all those new cola's popping up.
Training your plants is so advantageous.
Less scraggily bud, more solid colas, better use of light and more weight.

What's not to like?

Try This instead - http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008H15WFM/ref=ox_sc_sfl_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=AXC6VLRHTOFD2

As far as LST is concerned, using pipe cleaners from the Dollar store is working great for me. At least doubled my yield.

Thanks God hahah thats just funny shit. Tavid I love this grow already bro I love seeing every days new growth.. and Happyman I might try mainlining next time..
but for now my plan is to circle the pot and get as many colas as I can :weed:

Here's a picture from this morning, she's just fed so she's happy as can be!

CruzinPenguin · May 6, 2013

So while baked as fuck i thought why not top it now that it reached the pot and have each top go round the pot in opposite directions so when they meet up I top each again, get 4 colas from that.. and flower then? Hope this makes sence.. if not then just wait and see. Here's some pics for now
One side..

Other side

Close up before top

Topped

Lookin good CP, how often do u feed her while vegging? And what kind of cfl setup do u have? Lsting is a must to me, once they reach about the third or forth node i bend them over. The grow i have now is 12/12 from seed so i train very early.

CruzinPenguin · May 6, 2013

Right now it's every 5 days she's getting fed every other watering. For CFLs I'm kinda embarrassed to say I only have 4 13w "60w equivalent" 6500k CFL bulbs, 2 per reflector.

lykarckstar420 · May 17, 2013

Looking great man!!!!
I am doing the same thing but outdoor
Mine are 5 weeks old and beginning to tell me if she is female or not

lykarckstar420 · May 17, 2013

Its my first top n LST also

CruzinPenguin · May 18, 2013

Your girls are also lookin good lykarck.. looks like im kinda rough on my girl since she isn't more than 4" tall!! How tall is yours?

lykarckstar420 · May 18, 2013

Thanks man

Well they have been tied down almost 3 weeks now. and the normal " top of the plant " is actually the lowest top on there.
Id guess right now they are 8-10 " tied down and maybe taller once I release them which I plant on doing very soon.
I am pretty sure I can see female characteristics now, am hoping the brownish lil hairs growing on the stems mature into white pistils. Once i see them for sure I will untie and let it ride
