Wow, I just used thread-covered wire, or cotton covered wire as its sometimes called. Either way, it works real well. Very sturdy plus the thread cover prevents the thin wire from cutting into the plants. I used it to bend over my Purple Urkel clone. Best stuff for LST I've ever used.

| I agree. Regular old plastic coated #12 or #14 wire, used for house wiring, works well too, and might be easier to obtain.

| Growing under a screen, I found those twist ties you get with trash bags to be perfect for training to the screen. I stopped buying the pull top bags all together cause if nothing else, those twist ties come in handy when the one that WAS on the loaf of bread is no where to be found when Im done with it | ||
