Im guessing the one that broke died? Gotta be careful when you use lst. Just bend down the very top of the plants/stems. They should bend easily. And do not try to bend to much. Slowly guide it where you want it over time. If done right they should be facing back up towards the light within hours.
As a note some call LST to be more traumatic to the plants than topping and manifolding. For sure topping is very low stress on a plant. Doesnt seem to slow mine down at all. Manifolding can slow them down some depending on the plant. As you found out lst can turn into a high stress situation very fast. It is a technique you need to learn just go very easy on them next time. And I would for sure top them also. Its far easier than you think.Comment
