My 6 plants have been flowering for almost 2 weeks...They have been blowing up....I tied one of them down yesterday and it seemed great today the top has already started growing straight up...I did it with 3 more today...Anyone ever hear of LST this late??? It seems to be going great....I have it under a 150watt HPS and 2 42 watt CFL 2700k's on both side of the group of plants for under growth...I'm glad i have them now cause the canopy is pretty tight...any comments would be great...And if you guys need picks i will post...
 
I've heard it ok. I all most had to in my first grow. Lucky for me the monster stoped at 49" just under the light.

Every thing I found said it would be fine just don't break it.
 
Awsome plants dude....Yeah i didn't put to much stress on them i made sure to be gentle...I have psyced ...I germed 25 seeds gave 20 away as christmas presents and all 25 turned out fem...Now what are the chances of that???.... I did it cause i didn't have enough room for the 5 plants under the 150hps....But i'm glad i got the 150 cause i was growing with 167wats of CFL and witht the 150 and 84 watts of CFL i really cant tell the difference in my electric bill wich i what i was going for...Some dank weed for me and my friends....Hard to get good shit in CNY with them temp out side right aroudn 0....Sucks....
 
My plants are in a closet in a farm house from 1780 so the insulation sucks ass....I was thinking about getting a small heater....Not sure though...But anyways just went to check on the with lights out....The plants that were LST all are straghting out....Looking good...Some of the hairs are redish purpleish already what do you think about that???
 
I've had no problems LSTing a plant for the first couple weeks of flowering. The key, as you've already guessed, is to be gentle. These are some pretty resiliant weeds, so don't be skeered. You'll prolly be adding at least a couple days to your flowering time depending on how much LSTing you do, the plant does take a little bit to recover.
