LSTTT: Low Stress Twisty Tie Training

[Rock.Steady]

I'm not sure, I've never really done this type before. This was nearly all LST and nearly zero topping. I don't even remember what my last grow weighed in at, but for some reason 8 oz comes to mind. (I know, not real great.)

sounds crazy great to me:thumbsup:

Don't they end up tasting a little more 'grassy' than normal?

Anyone? Should I bother building one? Buhler?

[Opie Yutts]

Last night I pulled out sickhead. It's almost like I should never have bothered, but at least the others will have a little more. Please try not to laugh at the small buds. Popcorn buds? I wish. Try pea buds, or pin head buds. I like that, shoot I should have named her Pinhead.

I'll let you know on the weight when I can. 1/4 oz?

Do you like my highly technical drying apparatus?

[Mr. Clandestine]

1/4 oz?

Gotta be more than that, and those buds look mighty tasty! If they're one-hit-wonder buds, you don't need much. :stoned:

What did you do differently in this SCROG that you wouldn't have normally done? Besides not topping/training... I remember reading that. If you already mentioned this earlier, I apologize. I got lost somewhere around post# 10,482...

Yes, normally they are nice n tasty, but what I've had off this particular plant so far could be a little better, since I dried it in the microwave. Yes it pretty much is a one hitter, but with my high tolerance I usually take 2 or 3 just to play it safe. Wouldn't want to just get partially stoned, you know.

What I did differently is it's a whole new screen, and I couldn't make up my mind what direction I was going with the grow in general. I ended up winding vines around wire way more than I should have, and I LST'd instead of my normal topping style. I wasn't planning on using a screen at all when I first started out, then I had to retrain a whole bunch of branches so I could get my hands to the back, under the screen. I'm pretty sure I'm going back to topping since you have more control over bud size and amount. I want much less buds next time, and I want em bigger, darn it. I suppose the biggest difference is the reservoir size. This grow each plant gets 1/3 gal., as opposed to the my normal 1.5 or something. I still wasn't asleep by 3:00 AM last night. I was laying there thinking about what to do different next time and LED lighting.

:detective1: Naturally. That would be a partially terrible waste of time.

Topping over training, got it. I'd like to give SCROG'ing a shot one day, this is good information to know. I should write that down... now, where is that damn refrigerator?

Yeah, I've become nocturnal too. It's especially difficult to sleep when you stroll through a well-lit growroom in the middle of the night. You could go back into a pitch black bedroom and still see a blue or orange glare every time you close your eyes. That can't be good, maybe I should start wearing sunglasses when I go in there...

Tell me about it. Light show!

This is my first grow and im trying LST on my 3 week old. Is this too early? How often am I supposed to rotate the plant from screw to screw. Am I doing it halfway right? Any advice would be much appreciated.

you should really wait until they have 4 or 5 sets of fully mature adult nodes!! I would, anyway.

Goodluck bro,

opie, are u saying you normally top more? more than once?
what kinda schedule do you use when u top, or multi-top.

just me, but im starting to think 'top once with some lite LST'.
