To train or not to train? That is the Question

Discussion in 'Plant Training' started by Smokem Biggins, Dec 5, 2019.

  1. This is my first medical grow and I wanted to test different techniques. I grew untill the 4th or fifth node. Then topped. I waited 3 days to recover even though they never showed signs of stress. Then I bent over and staked for 3 days to let the under growth catch up after topping. Good results as the plants are super bushy. Now the plan is let them stretch(top if necessary) untill i can pull branches down and "redneck mainline"(learned that from GC) till the width im looking for then strech a bit and continue LST when necessary for a even canopy. Then I plan on switching at 1/2 the hravesting goal height for my space. My flower area is 6x9x8 and i can grow legally 5 plants. Im told they double somtimes tripple depends on the strain when flipping. Please any experienced growers chime in. Im only talking about what ive learned from youtube and GrassCity to start and pick my style of growing. I still have alot to learn thats why were here to talk with GC friends. I want to know what you think! Heres some pics of the training process I did.Stay medicated. Sorry for the bluish light during photo documenting. ANYONE please chime in on your experiences and what mine look like and advise on me on my so called plan. My plants are 29 days from breaking up through the soil. 3 days prior started germination
    Thanks,

  2. Training is a must if you want yield. I can get 1 ounce off a untouched plant. But 2-4 off a trained plant. It’s a no brainer
