Google: Training and tieing Marijuana plants. Should be in the FAQ as well. BOL

You missed this thread... it was good for a few laughs!

in a nutshell, the top-most tip of the plant has an enzyme, that regulates growth ... in nature, the side branches will NOT grow taller than the main tip ... BUT, if you tie the tip down, so the side of the branch itself, is now the highest point on the plant, new 'tips' will grow up from the sideways branch, making for more, larger buds ... use a string that is soft and thick, so it doesn't 'cut' into the stems, and you are less likely to snap a branch, if you do the bending after the plant has soaked up a watering, and is flexible ... :smokin: ... Stinky, is that YOU in that bondage drawing ? ... wow, you go, girl (I've been a BAD boy, lol) ... :jointsmile:

Who wants to get LST'd?

I'm afraid if I was to get LST'd, it could stress me, and I don't wanna be no damned hermie !!! ... I already have enough 'issues' ... :S3:

Does topping the plant turn it into a "Y"?

I use Velcro plant ties. They won't damage the plants. Available at your local tree nursery.

Not necessarily.
It CAN. It can also turn it into a little bush.
Thick soft yarn works well to tie plants. Whatever you choose should not cut into the stem.
