the act of LST or topping itself doesn't make your buds more dense or potent. and there is a lot more that goes into it than just light. i can accomplish the same thing with side lighting and no LST or topping. your environment and nutrient regiment are just as important as light.
I got a disappointing 1.5 oz's, shake

You are right about the environment and nute regi - that's why I've made drastic changes this time around(switched to hydro, new nute line, more veg/flower time, careful supplement planning). I think I should be increasing yield by 50-75% with these changes. However, I cannot upgrade my 150w at this time. But I believe LST'ing is still a strong point in my methodology in that picture.

Didn't realize at first that this is my :stoned: 420th post!! :stoned: Congratulations shake, it was in a discussion with you!!
