about what age do you put your cups to the bags , and are those three gallon bagsim using sixteen ounce cups, any info would be great as it is the first time ill be trying the teir system
Killa! Thanks for stoppin' in my Man! Thanks very much!
Noods! You're too kind bro! I'm grinnin' from ear to ear! Your comments always warm the soul! :smokebuds: And thanks for the +rep!
GoAuto6 I use 44oz styro foam cups to give me extra room and time. I tier into 1 Gallon Grow Bags so they are started in 44oz and tiered into 1 gallon grow bags. In your situation, with the 16 oz cups, I would tier them within a week to 10 days... You don't have that much room (as far as the roots going down and to the sides) in a 16 oz cup so you would need to get them tiered quickly to avoid stunting them. FullDuplex rule of thumb I believe is once the first set of true leaves reaches the sides of the cup tier it.
Mine were all tiered at 14 days. The roots hadn't reached the bottom of the cups and that's ideal. You want them to explode after tiering with all the new room. Wait too long and you'll most likely stunt them. I know from experience! LOL
I'll help anyway I can man! Best of luck to you! Do you have a thread going?
Thanks again everyone! :smokebuds:
Hey... Who can help me with LST? LOL My one Buckeye is getting too tall for the closet... Can I tie her down now or is it too late? And what's the best way? I have string of all kinds. Thickness and such. I'll picture her later when she gets fed...
Fear no Tabus, young Rebel. You know your Buckeyes, know what they like, what they don't, what's good for them or bad. Go for it! Tie the bitch down and control her! :howdy: :twist:
I think you still LST them but so very gentle and SLOW, because they have a strong apical stem! Thick! But it can be bent perhaps into a cornucopia?
You'll have to bend them with your fingers softly at the places where it needs to be bent. I can't stress this enough, be gentle, specially in the stronger part of the stem. You know how they supercrop it? first bending to one side then the other than all around and then they pinch it? you just need to do step 1 and 2 If it doesn't seem like it's going to bend on your fingers just put a string on a few nodes above and start bending it by there like a bow. Then the other day bend it a little more. Then a few hours later, bend it to another direction on some nodes above.
I use something like this, a little thinner I guess:
You are most welcome at my thread! I'm LST'ing an NL#5xHaze. It's also my first time! But there's not much to it. Just be a gentleman with her and she'll sucumb to your bondage skills
LOL Noods I love your way with words my friend!! I shall tie her down then!! Will this not only stop vertical growth but help with a bigger yield?
Hugo! Welcome to the home of my first breeding project!! Thank you very much for that info... I have that exact ball of string you pictured! I'm gonna head over to your thread now and begin my journey in learning LST!!
