Hows my LST

I just did it 24 Hours ago. Four hours in a couple of them had already started to turn up, and got tied down again. I'm using solder wire.
The tanned leaves are from over watering the first couple weeks. They were sitting in a tray of water. Got it down now though and theyre doing well.

I dunno, can't decide between FIMin and LSTin. Still time to decide though! I do like how LST exposes more leaves to the light vs straight up plants though. 150w HPS so I need the most area I can get.

Anyone else?

i think your good buddy the earlier te better. those side branches will develop more quickly and then you can tie them down as well

I think the earlier the better also, if you wait too long the stem will be too stiff and you'll end up damaging the plant, keep doing it the way you are.

I have had to lst a plants when they where in flower. Over 3 feet tall. Never had a problem just had to go easy. Just enough to make them bend from middle over to a 45 angle, so all the buds grew towards the light.
You can (over time) take a 3 foot plant or a 6 foot plant and take the top and tie it to the bottom.
