lst is sweet.. i lst'd 3 girls and let them veg for 60 days my first cab grow and yielded 12 ounces with my 400 watt. now i have 5 girls tree'd up and though i have larger more dense colas the yield only looks to be about 6-8 ounces. unless they are really that much denser and keep the weight when they dry..
lst is great.

I just thought I'd throw up a pic of what I'd used for LST training a while back. I got some electrical ground wire, wrapped it around a nut, dipped it in a can of that rubber-for-tool-handles stuff, and hung it up to dry. The weight of the nut holds it in place, and the copper wire can be bent to any shape. In addition, some are short and used right in the pot, others are longer and sit outside of the pot.
Just a suggestion. It sure works for me.

hey guys I tried LST for the first time this year outdoors and it seemed to work great
But I was wondering cuz Ive seen a few different methods somewhat like this year I bent my main stalk till it was basicaly completly horizontal and then let the branches do their thing but Ive also seen people not bend the main stalk and just bend the branches out? Your guys thoughts? Any big differences this way?

Big thanks for bumpin' this thread, it should be a sticky IMHO. This thread is the main reason I ended up yielding so well when I first started growing. It also helped transition me into scrog, though I still prefer this method over scrog.
This is the result of proper LST (could've used more pruning):
Two plants in a 10gal bubbler a couple days into flushing. They yielded 7.5 ounces cause of LST! I've done this to every one of my plants since then.

i've tried many different grow styles. I scrogged for a few grows. i then started tying them down and crushing the hurd etc. from the old High Times article. then smokinrav had a great couple of threads on lst. he used a lot of info from delta. where the fuck is everybody these days??
the tieing down is much better for me then scrogging. i have a good size space and the scroged plants could be a pain the ass to work with.
those are some beautiful plants guys. kudos!
good thread. got to keep the info alive.

Here's two of mine at 47 days - NL X BB and CrissCross (local clone-only). They're both forced around those individual support frames, then tied back with string or cable ties. They were both mother plants, so had already been bonsaied, and it was just a matter of exposibng as many sites as possible.
They are just starting to swell, and I aim to chop around 56 days...more pics of these and others in my current grow thread:

I have two Malawi Golds that are starting to expand rapidly, and need some discipline fast. Repotting on Sunday with some serious canes - they're way too strong for the ties at the moment...

I'll post pics of my Malawi Golds tonight - they're going like a train. This should be fun - the branches are like steel, and resist bending somewhat. They're up to 26 inches tall and putting on an inch a day, so if I can LST these, I shall subsequently consider myself an expert...
