Mephisto Genetics LST and Mephisto???

[R Wayne]

So I'm growing a Skywalker and Forum Stomper next. But I'm having trouble finding info about LST and those particular strains. Just curious if anyone has grown them with low stress training or without. What did you find worked best? I really like LST but am tempted to let them grow naturally since they will be my first Mephisto strains. Thoughts?

The plants will yell you what they want lol. I've found that taking cues from them instead of going in with a set plan seems to work better.

Unless its like a huge strain and you've got size restraints or whatever. If you mean for yield, I would let them just tell you.

I wouldn't let them go without any training. According to what I've read online, you could be losing 40% of your yield if you don't train at all. If you let it get a foot or two high and fold the whole plant over, that one act will give you a lot more to smoke.

It really depends. A lot of meph strains stay rather squat/compact from what I can tell. With strains that stay short and have tight node spacing its gonna be a completely different ballgame than a lanky girl with plenty of space between the nodes as far as training goes.

I top all my plants and use tomato clips to make them grow out instead of up during veg.

Point taken. The first few autos I grew were like bansai and probably didn't need training, but I haven't grown plants that small in months lol.

See, I started in a 2x2 so every plant I started up to the 2 wtf girls were trained as if they were going to live their whole lives in that space with 5ish other plants

Leaf tucking then top (if they come strong out o the gate) works well..

Cant say I agree 100 percent with that statement here's some that weren't trained I rarely do
