Thanks for the replies guys... Hope it all goes well so i can see just how awesome it is

Unfortunately... Its a sad day over here @ Mushu's....

I was redoing the LSTing i orginally had done and i was actually amazed how tight i had the strings. I have some picks and you can see where the string was tied as its alot smaller than the rest of the stem.

The sad part is... As i was undoing the string on the upper growth on katelyn... I accidentally, i guess, sawed? part of the top growth off ... I have pics to show you guys what happens when you LST too tight... So katelyn might turn out to be a bit shorter It's still held on there by SOME plant tissue, but it was kinda listing a bit to one side... So i dont expect it to be alive(the top part) when i come back from the weekend

I'll be leaving this afternoon till about saturday afternoon hopefully so i'll update when i get back and if i can get internet access where i'm at, i'll comment on any replies. Plants are gonna be watered just till it fills up the saucers they're sitting in, they suck that stuff up pretty quick, and i use it as my watering indicator when they've had enough.

Sad pics for the day -

This is what happens when your LST is too tight, you can also see @ the top of the pic, in the upper left hand corner, right below the leaf, theres another ring, thats where the other string was tied... This is erin, and she recieved no dmg other than those rings.


And heres the damage to katelyn.. You might have to look closely to spot it, i did the best i could. In the first pic it just looks like a ring right below the top growth in focus:


This pic you can clearly see the damage to the stem, Its not sitting like it is in the pic now, i've got it more or less level... But again.. I dont expect that part to make it through the weekend =/


Sad times

Later, Mushu
