Giant zip-tie LST...

Thought I might share a new discovery (new to me atleast)

I waited a bit to long to LST my babies, and they didn't want to bend.

So I used some giant zip ties, and zipped them down a couple clicks per day until they got to where they needed to be.

They bent perfectly, no crimping or snapping!

I used zip ties to do the same thing, adjusted them very little every day. Worked out just fine for me.

Good luck!
