Im too afraid to LST or top or anything...so i've decided to just let them grow. but if i did want to LST what is the best string to use, i hear some can cut the plant.

Question: I have a 150W HPS light, with a lamp shaped reflector (like a 3D parabola.) Would it be best to leave it centered above 3 plants, or take away the reflector and just put it between the 3 plants?

Anyway, here are the latest pictures

Anyone knwo why they are so droopy? and hte new leaves curl up?

I just watered them today, i think i might be watering them too little.

And why are there yellow leaves! im using balanced nutes and shit....maybe cuase of hte light oriontation?

are you letting the soil go dry before adding water?

they look over watered to me, also what is the PH of the soil.

they are nice and green so it must be that, bottom leaves starting to yellow too if you havent introduced veg nutes next watering should be it.

just LST the damn thing i was scared too and once i did one plant is was on....yeah.....did you see my LST guide?

[stangle12]

Yes i did! thank you very much,
i think i will LST, i do let the soil dry out, sometimes for two days.

I am going to use twine to LST them. is that cool? i dont want to harm my plants!

i used ribbon, twine, speaker cable, anything that is 12" long i claim for LST

maybe they just needed water then?

[stangle12]

i waterd them tday, so we will see tomorow. in the morning i will begin LST! caio

you only need to water every 2-3 days and use you nutes every third time you water, looking forward to your LST bend them over 90 degrees they will love it, i would leave the lamp over the plants as close as you can get it but keep an eye on the temps, they should perk up good luck strangle

So, the LST is working great! its making them grow faster i think. im not sure if im going to have them grow in a straight line, or curve them around the pot. Since 1 or 2 of these plants are going to be males (assuming) i think im gonna curve them around the pot for max space....

Pictures later!

i always made them grow around the outside edge of the pot, seems to work like a charm for me anyways, how do they look today?
