Cam's first grow update: Week 2

Hey everyone! Its been officialy 2 weeks and yes, my three lovley plants are becoming more beautiful by the minute. One of them, the weekest of the litter, was by-axidently cut two leaves short tonight... I was trying to redo some strings and then I noticed I can cut off the bottom two first leaves... but they're growing new ones up on top so its all good. It makes her look very thin though and very open.... I'm bending her to the side right now, then I'm bending her top in the other direction (I'm hopping to make a zig-zag out of her to help save space and get me more bud). and the other ones are just firmly being held down to the ground so that it learns to stay of a small size. I have them under 4 250 watt CFL and they seem to be doing very well with the amount given to them So tell me what you guys think of the pictures... feedback would be good!

Cam I think they are really healthy looking...

but....i gotta ask.....

WTF is with all the string ??? LOL

I mean what are you doing to these plants?

Haha... I'm holding the plants down to the ground so they don't grow tall... you told me about it lol. LST I think? I have a string attached to basicly every branch close to the stem... lol there are a lot of stings... but I gotta keep these babies small!

I also want the plants to grow straight rather than bent... I'm tring my best here don't make fun of me! :P lol. Will the strings keep the plant down?

LOL....

That is one of the cutest things I have ever seen :)

Get rid of the strings. LOL....

FOr LST you want the WHOLE plant growing....like a vine....on the ground.

YOu tie the top down only...lol...

Not every stem and leaf......ROFLMAO

I am not making fun of you bro....its just hilarious....

When she is tall enuff....gently bend her grow tip....

tie her JUST BELOW the tip and bring her gently over, anchoring her down....she will grow new tips and extend her main stem, which you simply keep anchoring down as she grows.

The strings on the stems arent gonna do anything...lmao....

I think your plants are awesum, but you wanna let her grow....just let her grow like a vine....

You will tie her, she will grow...you tie her again, she grows again.

All at the tips.

She will shoot from her nodes, right above the fan leaves, secondary growth spots.

Let those grow UP, untied....those will be your buds.

Hope this helps and hope my lafter doesnt disuade you. You are really doing well...

Just lose the strings ...hehehhehehhe

Let her grow free another 4 days...then..

Gently tie a noose around the stem just under the tip plus one node. Pull the plant down as far as you can without breaking her....this may take a couple of days.,,it may not.

keep that spot anchored for her whole life.

As she grows, continue the same pattern.

Keep me updated.

P.S....what was the name of that movie that all the midgets tied down the big giant fella with all these ropes and strings????

Thats what this reminds me of.... :)

Keep up the full time care.....they show they like it :)

P.S....make sure the noose around her is NOT tight....just anchored securely.

Her stem will swell as she grows and fatten...

A tight noose will strangle her.

Do what Hard-On suggested. Other than that, your plants are looking mighty healthy, good job! Keep us updated, keep up the good work, :cool: peace.

haha I took the strings off. So they're ... safe and happy again...

I would bend them now. You have great secondairies already.

let them bloom and blossom.

tie them down now.

look how tight they are, good start, imho...
