I just thought i would post some pics of a LST grow that i have going right now. The pic i am posting tonight is of a clone that is 9 days in veg. i am using fishing line with sinkers attached to them.The main LST point is near the top as you can see in the pic, and then at the bottom is the counter pull with twice the weight on it. This pic was taken the first day into training which was about two days ago. i will be posting more pics in the next few days.

I found empty beer or softdrink cans great for this, just add water to the can as more weight is needed. Be careful fishing line dont bruise the stem but!!!
Nice plants pal.

Ok i said I would have some more pics and here they are. These pics were taken today, a few hours in to lights on cycle. You can see how much the training has done in just a few days. The plant is already turning upward and starting to turn into an S.The second pic shows both plants, the one on the right has had no LST and is 6in. tall while the LSTed one is about 4in. tall. So you can see how LST can help keep your plants more compact.

Holy $h!t Freak that is one crazy looking plant. Eventually I want to get my plant looking like that, but I was a little worried to rush it because it was a clone and I want to make sure the root system and stem are in good shape so the can handle that much bend. By the way Freak how old is that plant in the pic, and how young did you start it?

that plant was 3 weeks at the time of the picture. I bend them over and tie them up when they have about 4 nodes

4th node huh, i might just have to try that with my next set of plants. If you start at the 4th node how long do you leave them tied down for?Just for veg. or do you do it somewhat into flowering?

They tend to pull the J hookes out of the ground during the stretch. When that happens, I let them go

You can bend them, contort them, and they will come back for more! Kinky lil beotches that they are... Pick up some eyelets and yarn from Wally World and you can really have some fun with them. Gotta be careful when using wire and fishing line so you don't cut your girls accidentally.
