...Doctor Rightkill, I presume

Your plants look lovely, Isaac. LST seems to be working for you, and they look like they're responding to it well. If you can, try to keep the canopy as even as possible, while still letting the personality of the plant show through

And yes, using LST does increase your veg time, but the upshot is that you have plants with multiple tops, and your overall yeild is maximized. I would keep 'em in veg until all of 'em have shown preflowers, and then switch the lights to 12/12. Be prepared for another growth explosion when you do this...

Make sure that you move a lot of air in your LST wonderland, though, as too much jungle can lead to babies being cooked. But keep 'em watered, and this is much less of a concern... Don't ask me how I know this

I concur on the FIMming patience thing, too. Sometimes you don't necessarily get the four or six tops thing, you just get a bushy motha of a cola. This is Not a Bad Thing. And yes, it does stress the plant a bit, but Sup3rThr!v3 can be your best friend while in veg...

I also admire your attitude towards your first 'learning experience'. Part of the reason that I haven't quite yet updated me own logs is that I've had some 'learning experiences' of my own in the past month...

Keep up the great work!
