Lessons in Bonsai and Bondage! =p

[canuck grower]

Morning everyone,

Funny how this joke has turned into a real discussion on kinky plant sex. :rastasmoke:

I might try topping and then tying the resulting 2 branches with a couple little girls I have here, but usually (heh, I'm so new it's funny to say "usually", but...) I don't top and just tie down the meristem. Once the other branches catch up to the meristem then I tie those all down.

IIRC justaseed tops, then ties down the topped branch. It seems that instead of topping producing 2 tops it produces as many tops as there are nodes on the topped branch.

After this bitch growing so fucking crazily I think I know why justaseed tops now, it should cause the plant to stop growing out at that point so it doesn't get too unwieldy. ... but maybe there's a different reason, I don't know. Alls I know is that plant bondage is hot, and fun! (with willing, adult participants of course! )

(you should see this plant now, it's so awesome I don't know if I should clone her or scrog her, or both!)

Whassup, Canuck. Good stuff.

Man, I've GOTTA go to your thread more often. In fact, I'm going there RIGHT after this. Anyway, good LSTing. Try the other way (the topping, then LST). I'm sure you'll like it. Let me get some of my other pics and throw them up here. They turn out either looking like Y's or big bowls of goodness. Either way, it's good stuff.

Here I go.

OH, AND CHECK OUT THIS WANNA-BE BONSAI MOM. See the big Y in the middle. That mother is about 130-150 days in veg at the time of this picture.

Thanks stinky! She's getting re-tied in 2 seconds, so she's here next to me now and she's soaking up the compliment.

I just topped Veronica & Jane yesterday... just a couple tips on each of them. As soon as I figure out something to transplant them into I'm going to really get into training them and what not. The Y looks cool, and it seems like it might be easier to manage. Oprah is fairly unwieldy in places.

Okay I have been avoiding work far too long today I'm going to try and get back to it. It's fun catching up on c.com though.
