Hi all,
Yesterday, I did my first attemp with some plants at tying em down.
All looked very good no creases, all went pretty smoothy.
Today, one plant has a crease in it at the bend.
Not sure how to handle the situation and fix this if possible.
Appreciate any and all advice :S5:
How far along is the plant? Two options, 1. let it out and allow it to heal straight with a splint or something, or my choice 2, just leave it and let it heal in position. If it's the last few weeks of flowering straighten it, if it's early still let it heal as is.
Just my opinion.

HOWEVER, there is a "training" method that has come to be called "HST" (High Stress Training).
Basically, you bend the plant until it 'kinks'... then, it is trained to go lower.
Bad thing is that it stresses the plants (and all the things that come with stress).
Good thing is: Plants grow through those HST sessions just fine.
Don't worry about the kink... it is all good. :)
