my pot is only like 6 inches wide across. am i suppose to tie it down once? or keep tying it down as it continues to grow? and if so, how would i tie it down more?
your final pot is only 6" wide, or just the net pot you started it in? If your final pot is 6" wide you are going to want to change pots.
Let's back up a second...LST is a way to grow a large plant in a small space (and maximize bud production). In order to grow a large plant, you need to give it a large root volume. So, there's not a lot of LST you will be able to do in a small pot, your plant will get rootbound before you realize much of the benefit of LST.
