Quick question on LST

[Bikerstonrr]

Happy New Year family. May your hopes and dreams for the new year come to fruition.

My lady is 3 weeks into flower. I manifolded her way back when and since have been using LST (plus listening to Green75 also am defoliating).

Should I release her from LST for the rest of flowering. She has an almost perfect flat table.

Sorry Santa didn't bring my camera, but I ordered one and a laptop. So at this time no pics, which is a shame as I'm very happy with her growth.

I would. It will give her some room to stretch and make room for buds to grow.

Shouldn't the original bonds loosened themselves weeks ago? In that case you should just be doing gentle pulls away from the center to control height if light is all the way up or just to stay even. By week three your plant is going to be fairly woody and stiff. You could do allot of damage bending at this point

I hope I'm reading Bikerstoner correctly, but I think he wants to turn her lose not tie her down.

I have just been maintain ing the LST these last couple of months.

Let her show you how well you trained her now Biker.

Happy New year to you and yours! and we will want to see her!

I would not release her...the ties is what is keeping her so stiff and sturdy...( hard to move whole plant )....as long as binds are not cutting into stalks she's fine....I never unbind mine...it's part of them and their structure now...

Interesting. I find all of mine become loose on their own and by the end I'm tying them up, not down.

IMO my plants are to lanky though. Thanks Green I think you just helped my next grow...lower and tighter.
