Hello.
Do you outdoor growers who use pots LST train your plants? I bought a nice grommet kit, but now notice it appears to be a tent strategy.
Thanks in advance.

A fair bit less reason to LST outdoors. The sun moves all day, and penetrates completely, not quite the same picture as trying to expose as much plant as possible to a nearby light. Having said that, a bit of leaf tucking might help uncover lower branches a bit.

Me, I don't bother them much outdoors, other than topping, which is a separate issue. OTOH, I know a lot less about it than some other peeps on here. :biggrin:

There are many valid reasons to train plants outdoors most involve stealth or sunlight shadows from trees or buildings. Wind can also be a consideration. If you don't have a reason then don't bother.

I do. I train every plant inside or out. A bunch of reasons why I don't know about the rest of these people but if you wanted good plant with a large yield you want to do training to your plant Super cropping, Topping, LST all those are benefits to you growing Outside or Inside anywhere it doesn't matter.

I Won't grow without some kind of plant manipulation. Plant manipulation will make your plant grow more Bud sites you'll get more sunlight to the intern nodes supercropping will also increase Bud sites and trichome production and raise the elevation of THC topping allows for more branches and Bud sites at a different rate there's a lot a reasons why to plant manipulate inside outside anywhere.

Great little garden spot. Too much bare soil for me. I hate bare soil.
I'd do pretty much like you in that garden. With photos, I'd just top a few times and simple pulling outwards.

Thanks @Olderfart. :toke:
There is a crew of us. We spend Many hour's hand trimming. Because hand trimming is were the money's at. :muahaha: With this generation of dialed in consumers that want hand manicured bud , with flavor profiles and aroma's . There's no money in dirt weed anymore. You better be about your game. If you want to get paid.:hump: these day's.

These 2 plant's are my Og fire kush n a Chem berry diesel. 9x9x8 both plant's.
Left overs I had to put in the ground in July and build a cage for.

Each gave me over 1000g"s of AAA smoke. Plus I had wax made with the trimmings and small crap bud's and got 60 gram's of wax. 2k each hand trimmed by me alone.:tang: 24 hour's 1 plant and the other 18.
It's all about the right trimmers.:pass:

The bare soil garden with the wooden fence gate... Is the guy I work for. This was his first outside garden. He don't think like we do when it comes to soil coverings or real compost:shrug: Not yet any way. That's why he hired me.

My garden's floor is

Teach him right!!!
Seeing all the chipped wood reminds me of all the truck loads of chipped limb trimmings I used to get at my old farm. I had companies call me to ask if I had space available for their crews to dump. I always had room!:smoking: Lots of good stuff in that!
 
Very cool.
We have a commercial chipper & unlimited Oak, Mesquite, & Pecan. It’s a great & unusual resource to have in the desert.
Thanks to all for your thoughts.
