Indoor topping auto's?

[jaretwest123]

Is topping an auto worth it, or lst'ing

 

[Jackal]

I never recommend topping auto's, it's to stressful and may set them back. LST would be fine.

I tried topping some awhile back. It set them back about a week while they recovered and in the end, they didn't yield any better. LST, on the other hand, works great.

 

[jaretwest123]

Is it worth lst them tho because my reg plants i lst seem to not grow as fast

 

[Muddy]

I probably wouldn't bother with LSTing them unless you have some height issues. With autos LST is more about height control than increased yields.

Ok all you text messagers what is LST? I am always so out of the loop.

 

[Muddy]

LOL, I don't text either. LST is Low Stress Training, or PB, Plant Bondage. Kinky eh?

This was my Sour 60 grown without outside influence (training, topping, etc). I think next time I will do some LST by bending the main branch downwards in the 2nd week to equalize growth. Any time the canopy is more equal and able to receive similar light intensity across the entire area, you can achieve big buds like the head cola in this photo across most of the canopy instead of just 1 cola. Hmm... wonder if I should build a little 6" x 6" screen

This is a result of LST!

Wow Muddy you send so ready to go send that guy one of those new phones with a keyboard. You may not be a text missager but what about that plant bondage thing. Gee we used to call that side staking. I just can't keep up I tells ya.
