Hmm, so training, topping etc. cannot be generally said to be better, or worse, than just letting the plant grow naturally?



I was planning on allowing my plants to get up to about 1m tall under a 400w HPS. I would trim the leaves and bend as necessary to allow light to get to the lower branches. I was also thinking about putting a couple of T5s in there among the plants to keep the light down low.

I do know that so long as I can get about 120-140 grams per harvest, that should last my spouse and I until the next harvest. Once I get to that yield, all I care about is potency. Is this possible to do with 2 or 3 plants, with minimal LST or topping? I really want to keep my first grow simple, so I can learn the basics. I figure this shoud also make it easier to keep the quality of the plant high.
