Thanks! I'm amazed at how easy the LST was seems how this was my first try. Some of my main stems look pretty crazy lol. One thing I did notice is out of all my plants the best response to the LST was the plant where I accidentally broke the stem. I actually stopped LST'ng after the incident and it has turned into a perfectly symmetrical bush whereas some of my bigger ones I had to train every single branch. I think what happened is I waited too long to LST the others.
The strings are off! I decided that vertical growth has pretty much stopped on all the plants so I took all my LST strings off. I'm quite impressed with the results. I got a nice spiral pattern on all the plants. I also removed a few of the excess leaves. Can I use these leaves for edibles yet?
I'm planning on waiting until Wednesday to feed them again. Then I will add Tiger Bloom and switch to my HPS bulb.
Mrbubbles87, is there a particular reason to remove the LST strings? I thought they should stay there till the end? I mean even if vertical growth stops, a plant will try to recover at least a little?
Lol thanks. Do you know when you can start using trim for edibles? I'm assuming these haven't started producing thc yet so I wouldn't be able to use them but I'm not sure.

I was debating keeping them on until the end. I'm honestly not sure if your supposed to keep them on our not.
Basically with my plants I was trying to create a spiral pattern where I turn the top down and towards the center. Now that vertical growth has slowed the plants have an even canopy. Even if they grow further I believe they will continue to grow in the same shape and keep a somewhat even canopy. If not i still have my strings I can get back out.
